Every Day Gets Lighter When You Let Go of Yourself | The Michael Singer Podcast New Year's Special
The Michael Singer Podcast: Season 3, Episode 6 (New Year's Special)
What do you plan to do with your "next lap around our star?"
Nearly everyone, Michael observes, will do the same thing they do every other year of their lives: try to get what they want and avoid what they don't want. And they'll be just as unhappy.
Why do we do this? Can’t we liberate ourselves from this no-win situation? Here, Michael Singer shines an optimistic light on the New Year.

This should be taught in schools.
One of my favorite things about Mickey is how calm and slow and soft he starts each talk... but within 5 minutes his contagious energy and excitement completely take over!!! 🙂

It's kinda strange how most of us see outerspace as "out there" like we aren't IN space and apart of it. Lol.. it's kinda a trip.. to not see ourselves as separate. WE ARE IN SPACE.. it's not out there.. lol
I absolutely love Michael Singer, unfortunately, it’s not necessarily so easy to gloss over trauma responses in terms of likes and dislikes. Yes, that is the root of it but until we go back and reparent ourselves and love and accept the inner child, it seems rather belittling to just say just do it. Yes, it is a just do it , yet it’s not so simple but it is easy, it also hard. Anyway just my two cents for those of us who listen to this and realize how hard it was to learn to override the limbic system imprints from childhood and learn to regulate ourselves. Much love everyone. Healing happens ❤

If you can relax through what is happening, you will be more clear to be able to do any of that work. If you can stay in the present, you can start to see that whatever happened in the past cannot hurt you anymore. He is just teaching the basics. ❤️ A person who can not do the basics can not do the work that you describe here effectively. That is why therapists and counselors exist, because most of us cannot handle the basics alone. We freak out about traffic and other small things. When in reality we are just scared of what we think being late will mean for us because of what it may have meant in the past. Blessings. ❤

I really don’t sweat the small stuff. But in the case of serious scenarios, not talking about preferences .. but daily emotional abuse and situations that you have to just stay in and accept against your values because of your situation, it’s not so simple kind of thing. It’s dangerous to say to this scenario it’s your fault and it’s your perspective .. a concept that can make you feel that on top of trauma which is still relevant unfortunately .. there is something wrong with you if you are tired of being in survival mode and get into negative exhausted. He says basic things that are common sense if the person is genuinely sees life positively, in some cases it’s not easy if there is no support system, and anything basic for human being to operate in the positive

It's never easy to deal with trauma. But like he said, it takes practice and patience, and eventually you will be free. I've done therapy for 14years and it's finally breaking loose. Now to take what he said and let it pass because it's already happened. No longer do I need to re-live it, bring it to the surface, deal with it and allow it to haunt my here and now.Let.It.Go. Best wishes to you.
I found him in 2019 . Went uk to live , it was so challenging working in Covid in the health system… I did all his courses read all the books… now this journey is my life - I am the awareness- I witness my thoughts everyday day … ❤❤❤

Imagine a life where nothing bothers you for more than a few seconds (while you let go of the thoughts and emotions). Not the other drivers, not the people with whom you have relationships, not work, not strangers' behavior. Nothing ever bothers you ever again. Maybe nothing on the outside changes -or maybe it does - but the inside is now a very pleasant place to be. Keep becoming aware of yourself and of the thoughts who pretend to be you. You will live this way, when you find out that you are not the ego.

How do we sit in the seat of consciousness? That's the part I'm finding hard. I'm observing my thoughts, but I'm not sure if that's me thinking about thoughts or is that my awareness, the see-er? Should I feel like my heart is observing my thoughts? Or is it something else? Would love to hear your thoughts on it 😊

My head was in a complete tizzy the last few days. I was making myself miserable and struggling as a result. This podcast was exactly what I needed to hear. It helped to remind me of the Truth and snapped me out of it. The peace, contentment and the freedom I am ultimately seeking is already here. I will still work towards my goals but I am done chasing them.
Surrender 🙏❤️🦋🥰 After 62 years I’m circled back around to Sacred Surrender…..True Freedom & Wholeness….Beautiful Paradox. Humbled. Thank You 🙏 ❤
He said”there is nothing to like or dislike, it’s all atoms”! 😮
He is just he best .. I so used to do what he talks about - avoid all my childhood triggers, try manipulate the world to avoid everything and they, TRY TO KEEP IT THAT WAY. So futile .. I was so miserlbly unhappy. This just rings so true .. The 8part video course is amazing, - DO IT - I would encourage EVERYONE to get it ... I listen it to it over and over and over ... it's great.
Michael Singer has a way of reminding me that it's okay to feel safe, thank you!!!
So easy but hard to do. I constantly have to remind myself. Come back, B here now. Stop the suffering. I know the suffering comes from holding on .
Happy New 2024 everyone!! Thank you for the Love and light
THANKYOU Jack, I’m eating more variety now too because of you …😊
Wonderful explanation of relax; LET GO. THANK YOU , MICHAEL!!
Started this last summer .. "It ain't easy" but it is self evident, undeniable truth ..
All in the last 10 minutes, it's the best way to understand let go👏

My dad passed away a year ago . Also my husband and I also had other family members pass away. And other smaller upsetting issues to accept / deal with. Michael has helped me alot with many things , past , present. And future anxiety which hasn't happened yet. I remind myself to stay centered.
He is my life’s teacher. Thank you Mickey Singer
Yay
"If you have to be doing anything about it to try and be okey, it means you are suffering." Thank you🌺
I would give anything to be able to meet Michael Singer in person before I die .... I live in South Florida ... and he is magical with explaining the human experience on this magical planet 🌎 I am a baby boomer❤❤❤❤

So great! Thank you.

What a bloke!
It can be a year of a birthday , anniversary, remembering a date of a loved one passing away / friend, family member. He makes it more clearer understanding our behaviours / experiences..what we do on a daily basis. Remembering to stay centered.

Could you expand upon 2 topics, please? 1. Spiritual activism 2. Getting over mistakes-especially in healthcare
Al advertising is something I would really like to see changed.I know I maybe I'm off topic but I feel passionate about this one.
Thank you Michael , Wow what a great teaching… the last part of the different tiers of letting go was beautiful . In the book “ Letting go” by David Hawkins he says more or less the same but talks about Freud’s assessment that suppression leads to neurosis and hence we believe expression is the answer which he also says is a poor way of handling the emotion. So should we look at suppression is the lowest tier than expression . Either way they are not what we want !!

“Let it be.” (The Beatles)
Those who practice the inner tradition, like Mickey, are raising the frequency of mankind. In days of yore, it was a goal to be like a gnani on top of the hill watching the beasts cavort, below. Now, that human consciousness has been haplessly suffering itself into receptivity, and appears to be awakening, let the gnani "high tide", raise all ships. The Universal Prodigals are asking, "Why are we eating husks?" Go home. The hug comes before the bath. Awaken Ye!

Everytime I listen to Michael, I have to work at letting go of how he goes from a 'calm & soft' voice, than he shifts into a Chastising, rediculing, laughing-At, TONE OF VOICE! I don't like it. So, I tell myself to stop being bothered by his Tone of voice... Which reminds me of years of redicule by my stepfather! So, I hear what he is 'teaching' but it sure is hard to let go of what it triggers in me. But, eventually I do. So, I don't listen to him often but when I choose to, I am aware of my past experience with his Style. And, I let go somemore of what is not important. Listening to him is a bit crazy-making for me.🤔🥴🤔
He says how simple it is all the time. And I get it! But it is too simple for our minds (he said how smart it is) 😅 I have been having such a hard time accepting that people around me wouldn't even ackonowledge any of this. But unlike Mickey, I was frustrated and a bit judgemental, now I am becoming more accepting. 😊 it makes less and less sense to have an opinion about anything people do. They are on their own path and we see egos at play, but we know who/what they really are. Now, simply asking for a person to change feels very hurtful to me because I feel like I am hurting them. It is really strange...

Don’t worry you drop off everything including the ego clothes at the door of death
Sooo FUNNY while talking about the deepest most important things 😂❤
I’ve been listening for 40 minutes. He’s just not going to go deeper than..’just let go’. I’m waiting for the how to. See, it’s not that easy otherwise he would have said by now. I guess practice by being aware of my perception. Is that it?
What a New Years gift from Mickey, Thanks ❤. Suddenly I really understand what letting go means in daily life. This elevator story is amazing. But one thing I do not understood: what did Mickey mean by New age behavior ?
@skykennedy3574
4 ай бұрын
I don't remember the context but to me, new age behavior, could refer to a modern society which embraces and develops comforts while avoiding every kind of self restraint and, particularly, the life giving pain of repentance and any pain in general. Leading to ignorance of the existing spiritual heart, leaving us wide open to temptation (provocation).
