There are times when our minds become too full. Our to-do lists, worries,
plans, and dreams may be so crowded together in our heads that we don't have
room to think. We may believe that we are somehow taking care of our
desires and concerns by keeping them at the forefront of our minds. In
maintaining our mental hold on every detail, however, we may actually delay
the realization of our dreams and the resolution of our worries because we
won't let them go. At times such as these, we may want to use a surrender
box.
A surrender box allows us to let go of our worries and desires so the
universe can take care of them for us. We write down what we want or need to
happen and then place the note into a box. By writing and placing our
thoughts in the box, we are taking action and letting the universe know we
need help and are willing to surrender our feelings. We give ourselves
permission to not concern ourselves with that problem any longer and trust
that the universe is taking care of it. You may even want to decorate your
box and place it in a special place. Your surrender box is a sacred container
for your worries. Not only do you free up space in your mind by letting go of
our worries and desires and dropping them into your surrender box, but you
are giving your burden over to a higher power. Once we drop our worries and
desires into the surrender box, we free our minds so we can be fully present
in each moment.
Surrendering our worries and concerns and placing them in the hands of the
universe doesn't mean that we've given up or have been defeated. Instead, we
are releasing the realization of our desires and the resolution of our
worries and no longer concerning ourselves with their outcomes. It's always
fun to go back and pull the slips of paper out of the box once your requests
have been granted. And it's amazing how quickly problems go away and dreams
come true when we finally let go and allow a higher power to help us.
