Let it Be
Sometimes we are presented with a situation that seems like a crisis. When this happens our first thought is to “do something!”
Unless the building is on fire or a tornado is headed straight for you, you can often just “let it be.”
Why would you want to do this?
Usually when a crisis hits, we tense up and go into reaction mode. This shuts of our brain and kind of causes us to go on auto-pilot, which is great when you’re in real danger (getting out of that burning building for example). But most crisis aren’t really life or death situations, and acting without thinking it through may not get you to the best solution.
If you take time out to just let it be – to step back and watch things unfold a bit you might see the crisis in a different light, and invariably solutions will present themselves that weren’t apparent at first.
Allow the Universe (and yourself) a little breathing room.
Let it be and a solution will come…and it will be a good one!

Maria ~ Thanks for this one!!! This is sooooooo true.
I think I need to remind myself of this EVERYDAY!
My stress levels lower when I can quickly ’step back’ and REALLY assess the situation I find myself in!

I agree with you on one level with this, but on another level I think we do need to take action.
Yes…when a crisis occurs I think it is great to step back and let things unfold a bit, and perhaps focus some energy on how you want it to be and let the Universe do the rest…or at least give yourself the opportunity to see the solution that you want.
On the other hand, I think that some action is required to create change. To many times I see folks wishing for something to be different and thinking about how they want it to turn out, but not taking any action steps towards aligning themselves with the energy of what they want. Heck…I have caught myself doing this lately around some projects I am working on. I have received some inspiration around what steps to take, but I am not doing it. It is easy to get caught up in just waiting for it to happen.

Glad to be of service Allison :)
Leah I agree with you too. Part of manifesting is taking inspired action. While some things do just work out on their own without any participation from me, most things do require action. It’s just that if I try to force a solution or take action before I feel the nudge I just end up spinning my wheels and not getting anywhere. Everything in it’s season, right?
