What Does It Really Mean to Let Go?

I often hear the words, “Just let it go.”

But what does that actually mean?

Because simply thinking about letting something go—or exhaling deeply—doesn’t mean we’ve truly released it. Letting go isn’t passive. It’s an inner process that begins with recognition—naming what we’re holding onto—and then having the willingness to release it.

And that’s not easy.

Letting go often requires us to meet the very emotions we try to avoid: grief, anger, fear, sadness. Emotions that feel heavy—sometimes unbearable. But it’s only through acknowledging and moving through them that we stop being held hostage by them.

I’ve noticed that when I’ve truly let go, I can think about the person, event, or situation—and there’s no emotional charge left. No bitterness. No mental loops. No lingering ache. Just peace.

I may still remember, but I don’t suffer.

I feel like I’ve alchemized and transmuted.

I feel resolved.

I’ve come to acceptance without resignation—and for me, that distinction means everything.

Because in real letting go, I feel free.

My heart feels lighter.

My mind stops ruminating.

And I return home to myself—more clear, grounded, and whole.

⸻

Letting go doesn’t happen in a single breath or moment—it unfolds through awareness. It begins when we’re willing to see what we’re holding. Sometimes, it’s not the person or the event itself, but the story we’ve attached to it—the meaning we made about who we are because of it. When I pause long enough to name it honestly, something begins to loosen.

From there, I let myself feel.

The tears, the tightness, the fire of anger, the ache of sadness. Letting go doesn’t mean suppressing or pretending it doesn’t hurt; it means allowing those sensations to rise and move. Often, I’ll write, take a walk, or let my body tremble or breathe until the energy starts to shift. These emotions are just that—energy in motion—and when I let them move, space begins to return.

Presence becomes the anchor. When my mind starts replaying the old story or analyzing the past, I come back to the body. I place a hand on my heart, take a slow breath, and feel the ground beneath me. Here, in this moment, I remember: this is where healing happens. This is where release lives.

Movement practices like Pangu Qi Gong, yoga, or even walking barefoot on the earth help me bring it from the mind into the body. There’s something sacred about letting Great Nature hold the energy I no longer need, and also offering love back to Great Nature.The body knows how to release—if I give it the chance.

Letting go is not about forgetting or dismissing what mattered. It’s about surrendering the grip. It’s allowing life to flow again through what once felt stuck—trusting that what’s meant for me will remain, and what’s ready to leave will free me in return.

✨Have you ever thought you let something go—only to find it circling back later, asking for a deeper release? Yep me too.

Sometimes, I’ve had to let go more than once—of the same situation, the same person, the same wound. Each time, I meet a deeper layer. Each time, a softer truth. Letting go isn’t a straight line—it’s a spiral, guiding me home through repeated circles of release and remembrance.

So if something comes back, it doesn’t mean you’ve failed. It means you’ve reached a new depth of readiness—a new layer asking to be seen, felt, and freed.

Love for the journey,

August 2025 | The Woman and the Work are One

Raw. Real. Unfiltered.

There’s never been a clean divide between who I am and what I do—because this work is consistently being born from my own evolution and becoming.

I didn’t know exactly what I was getting into with this new yoga job—just that every cell in my body lit up with a YES.

Turns out…

It’s my dream job.

I’m teaching in the heart of a conservation park—and there isn’t another lodge around for miles.

50,000 hectares of untamed, sacred land. Every time I look an animal in the eyes, I send them deep loving energy—and tear up in complete awe. I’m waking up every day in what feels like a David Attenborough documentary meets soul-mission alignment.

First things said to me upon arrival:

“Make sure to zip up your tent—the baboons here are extremely dangerous and have become addicted to sugar and coffee.” 🫣☕️🍌

“The leopards circle this mountain. But don’t worry—our anti-poachers chase them off at night.” 😳 every time I walk to my tent in the dark it’s a lil’ thrilling …

Could anything ignite this wild, fiery, adventurous, soft, and free spirited medicine woman more than this?

Nope.

This is it.

Heaven on Earth.
 

A dream I never even knew to dream. And I get to offer some of my deepest gifts here. If I could whisper anything into your heart today, it would be this:

Don’t stop saying yes.

Keep trusting your body.

Let your soul guide you.
 

A year ago, I couldn’t have imagined this. Now I’m living it. And I feel it’s only just the beginning.

Does it have challenges? ALWAYS.

I’ve moved tents six times in a week, then snuck into a “forbidden” guest house for one warm, cozy night. The journey of adaptability continues…

Today many crises were averted… a baboon nearly broke into a tent, water tanks flooded, a huge (exhausting) group came and went with no hot water—but somehow, we’re all still smiling. The tents don’t always hold the heat, but the heart stays warm—thanks to the people, the land, the music, and the wild aliveness of it all.

The bush is hypnotic. Teaching yoga or out on game drives, I sometimes fall into a trance. Baobabs and Acacia trees blur into beasts. Illusions and intuition dance. And always, we’re being watched—from the tall grass, from the unseen.

The healing services I offer, the retreat spaces I hold, the practices I guide—they all rise from the life I live, the lessons I learn, and the path I walk every day. There is no separation. I am my work. This means I share the raw, the joyful, the undone, and the in-progress right alongside the invitations to work with me. Because for me, sharing my journey is just as vital as sharing my services.

The path I’m on isn’t perfectly branded or filtered. It’s evolving, embodied, and deeply real. And that’s exactly how I want it.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Whether you come to a class, a retreat, a session—or simply read along—I’m grateful for the connection. If you’re feeling called into deeper presence, healing, or nourishment, I’d love to journey and walk with you.

with heart and love,

Anisha

March 2025 | Why I Do What I Do

Well, to understand all we have to do is watch the news. 🗞️ 

Nature is CRYING and screaming so that we stop destroying our earth. People are hurting like never before. There is so much hatred and war, greed and selfishness. There are arguments over things that simply they don’t matter, and blow up into something much worse. When we feel balanced, regulated and whole, we naturally look for a harmonious world where everyone wins. When people profoundly feel their own light, their own impact, their own connection with nature and others, they treat others and the world around them better too. If we look inside first and create balance between our own body mind and spirit, then it will trickle out into our relationships, the world and nature around us.

I help people and hold a deep space for them to find and reclaim their light, their joy, internal harmony and their purpose for living, because when we are in marinating in the potency of our own rich purpose, presence, and value as a human being, we naturally want to contribute more to the goodness and the collective love. We can open our hearts even more to loving ourselves, being loved and sharing that love, and that’s what the planet needs more than anything else right now. 

Without genuine love guiding us and leading the way, we will get pulled into the collective of fear, anger, hopelessness, complaint, etc., and from that place, in my opinion, we are only contributing to the problem, not the solution. It may take daily reminders, daily practices, and a commitment to this reality so that we can stay aligned, but to me it’s so worth it, and the only way that makes sense to move forward. 

Whether it’s a remote session, a two hour workshop or weeklong retreat, this is the core of it. 

What matters is how we treat each other, how kind we are, how much we are willing to cultivate and evolve because we are in a time where we need to wake up, and if we don’t, I believe we will suffer. This is a time of finding alignment within, through conscious, spiritual awakening, and there’s no time to waste.

During this podcast interview recorded this past December in Bali, I open up a bit more about my life and what brought me to this point. I also share more deeply about my current offerings. 

love for the journey,
Anisha
