This week, Barb and Michelle continue their conversation from the week before, discussing the topic of letting go, moving on, and finding peace. It can be challenging for all of us to find closure when we don’t get the apology or validation that we feel we are owed. Luckily, we don’t need the external world to give us permission to be free. Follow us @MichelleMaros and @Peaceful_Barb and share your experiences with us @BarbKnowsBestPod or at  www.michellemaros.com/podcast.

Episode Notes:

Helpful Steps to Guide You in Your Practice of Acceptance:

1. Know yourself. Ask yourself what it is you want to get out of it. Is it an apology? Is it peace?
2. Know how to pick your battles and where you should be placing your energy.
3. Know when to take an action and what that action is.
4. Know that what’s done is done. Don’t let yourself relive the past over and over.
5. Know that it is all going to be okay.

Grandma Sumana Poem

After all those years

looking after others, 

this old heart has finally learned

to look after itself. 

Each act of kindness 

a stitch in this warm blanket

that now covers me

while I sleep.
