Phillip Moffitt leads a meditation exploring the story of our lives. The first step is to acknowledge the absolute necessity of the narrative; letting go is another.
The stories that we repeatedly tell ourselves about our lives, others, and the world can be very limiting and inaccurate. Identifying and then letting go of our stories can often be quite liberating, and it can open us to new directions and possibilities in our lives. Check out this free worksheet about letting go of your story. It asks you to examine the stories you currently believe about yourself, others, or the world, question their validity, and practice letting go of them. Changing or letting go of one’s story is commonly practiced in psychotherapy and some meditative and religious traditions. The worksheet’s method was adapted from a practice created by James Baraz in his book Awakening Joy.
