Sometimes we ALL need a little poetry to open Our Minds to the imagination & Our Hearts to the creative life process. This poem resonates with my current theme of letting go of that which does not serve you.

We do it in practices like the Yoga for Detox Flow, and we do it on subtle levels of Prayer and Meditation to overcome obstacles that are in our path. In order to do this you must Allow Yourself (as the poem is titled) to be whole, to be powerful, and to be present with the process of this great life.

And always remember, you’re not doing it alone.

Enjoy the poem ~

Allow Yourself
by Catherine Pulsifer, © 2009

Allow yourself to dream,
And when you do dream big

Allow yourself to learn
And when you do learn all you can

Allow yourself to laugh
And when you do share your laughter

Allow yourself to set goals
And when you do reward yourself as you move forward

Allow yourself to be determined
And when you do you will find you will succeed

Allow yourself to believe in yourself
And when you do you will find self confidence

Allow yourself to lend a helping hand
And when you do a hand will help you.

Allow yourself relaxation
And when you do you will find new ideas.

Allow yourself love
And when you do you will find love in return

Allow yourself to be happy
And when you do you will influence others around you.

Allow yourself to be positive
And when you do life will get easier.
