Sacred Place in Space...
This month, we’ve been exploring The Sacred Art of Letting Go.
We’ve taken time to feel gratitude for what was.
We’ve considered what it means to create a little more space.
And today, I’ve been thinking about what happens next.
There is often a space between what we have released and what has not yet arrived.
That in-between place can feel uncertain.
We may want answers.
We may want to know what is coming.
We may want some reassurance that everything is going to work out exactly the way we hope.
But sometimes, we simply don’t know yet.
And perhaps part of letting go is learning to trust ourselves in that space too.
Nature reminds us of this so beautifully.
A tree doesn’t hold onto every leaf because it is afraid of what winter will bring. It releases what is ready to fall and moves quietly into the next season.
There is no rushing.
There is simply trust in the rhythm.
Maybe we can offer ourselves a little of that same grace.
Today, take a moment to place your feet on the ground and take one slow, steady breath.
Notice what is supporting you right now.
Your breath.
The ground beneath you.
Someone you love.
A small comfort in your home.
A moment of peace.
Something that made you smile.
You do not have to know what comes next to be grateful for what is holding you today.
One of the tools I return to when I find myself feeling uncertain about the future is the Kundalini mantra Sat Narayan.
Sat Naaraayan Wahe Guru, Hari Naaraayan Sat Nam
For me, this mantra is a reminder to soften my need to control or predict what comes next and to trust that I am being carried, even when I cannot yet see where the path is leading.
Sat Narayan speaks to the idea of the True Sustainer — that there is something larger holding and supporting us as life continues to unfold.
And this is one of the things I love about mantra practice.
The repetition gives the mind something steady to return to, while the rhythm of the breath and the vibration of the voice can help us settle into the present moment. We don’t have to think our way through everything. Sometimes we can simply breathe, chant, listen, and allow the sound itself to become an anchor.
For me, that vibration creates a shift from trying to solve the future to simply being here now.
When my mind wants to race ahead and figure everything out, chanting this mantra helps bring me back into the present and reminds me that I do not have to know where the river is going in order to trust that I am still being carried.
If you’d like to experience the mantra for yourself, here is a beautiful version:

For this Thankful Thursday, I invite you to consider:
What can I trust today, even if I cannot see the whole path ahead?
And perhaps:
What am I grateful for that reminds me I am supported while things are changing?
There is wisdom in allowing ourselves to be in the middle.
Not where we were.
Not quite where we are going.
Just here.
And maybe, for today, here is enough.
Thank you for continuing to share this space with me.
May you trust the unfolding, breathe a little more deeply, and find gratitude for all that is quietly carrying you forward.
With love & gratitude,
Donna 🤍
