Actionable steps to practice surrender in your life:

1. Pause and Reflect: When you catch yourself trying to control a situation or feeling overwhelmed, take a moment to pause. Reflect on how this need for control is affecting you. Ask yourself: What is trying to control this situation doing to my mind, body, and soul? Suffering is caused by resistance. Suffering = Pain x Resistance. When we resist change in our life we suffer.Allow yourself to recognize where control and resisting uncertainty is creating stress and preventing you from experiencing peace and new pathways.

2. Use the I Don’t Know Mantra: When you feel stuck in fear or uncertainty, use the mantra “I don’t know.” or “I don’t know, but God does”. Silently repeat it to yourself, opening up to the freedom that comes with not having to have all the answers. You can either fear the mystery of life or love it. Loving it will open your heart and mind to possibilities and leave you with much greater peace in the present, which is where we create from.

3. Set an Intention to Surrender: Choose one situation where you feel tension or anxiety. Consciously set the intention to surrender it. This doesn’t mean you’re giving up; rather, you’re choosing to let go of the emotional weight and persistent anxiety it carries. Say to yourself, "Dear God or Dear Universe, I’m feeling anxious about this, but I’m willing see it differently. I’m willing to trust your guidance and the process".

Surrender is about finding freedom. Tune in to learn how to embrace this powerful practice in your life.
