When I was in elementary school, not too long ago or maybe a tiny bit ago 😉, we had to turn in our permission slip to have approval to go on vacation. That was the golden ticket to get out of the school building and go on a great adventure.
That permission slip was our release or escape in my case since I did not like school very much. I wanted to be home on the farm outside in nature with our animals far away from the drama and chaos I experienced in that building.
Interestingly almost two decades later I experienced the freedom of the permission slip again. I found in working with my coaching clients if ever they were stuck in any area of their lives a quick way to shift and release them into their desired state was a simple yet powerful phrase:
“I give myself permission…”
Let me explain how this simple phrase can literally shift areas of your life that have been blocked for years.
One day while tuning into my client’s energy I felt the emotion of unwanted. Generally, whenever I sense an emotion that needs to be released for my client I am able to shift that emotion quickly and easily. However, this emotion of unwanted with this particular client on this particular day would not let go.
I paused.
I was curious.
As I began to tune in and listen, I heard permission. Give him permission. I spoke out loud, “I give myself permission to release unwanted.”
And what do you know violà just like that unwanted instantly released from his body. From that moment on whenever a client is stuck and having difficulty releasing a negative emotion and shifting into their Divine Alignment, I always go back to permission.
You can use this tool too.
Ask yourself, what areas do you want to give yourself permission in?
Forgiving yourself?
Laughing more?
Letting go of unworthiness?
Loving yourself?
I invite you to give yourself permission to write down one thing each day for the next 7 days on a piece of paper that you want to release or fully align with. The sky is the limit. Oh wait, there are no limits! Go take a pause and write down one thing you are giving yourself permission in! Please share with us in the comments below.
Live Fully in Divine Alignment,
Beth
