Lightness is all around. Are you sensing it too? Spring has given us longer, brighter days and less layers to wear. People are letting go of the things they no longer want, need, use, or like. They are deciding that much of their "stuff" is not worth the physical real estate, emotional energy, or maintenance. What am I noticing? Space is opening up. We are breathing better, moving through our days more easily, feeling more focused and less stressed. Like the season, we are feeling lighter as we release, let go, and simplify.

I took a walk recently and my winter coat stayed home. Instead, a light sweater was all that I needed. I felt the warm sun on my face. The air was starting to smell sweet with the first spring blooms. I took a deep, long breath, held it a few moments, then slowly exhaled. It felt wonderful to let go and feel less emcumbered. As I walked, I was grateful for the beautiful day, the warm air, the sweet scents, and the space.

As you move forward in the weeks ahead, notice the lightness that is there for you. Take a deep breath. Hold it. Let it go. You are on your way. What else will you release?
