The Power of Salty Surrender - by Jennifer Hatt

Those of us who are immersed in the WEL-Systems® way of living know the power of interconnectivity. Noone lives in isolation. When you bear witness to another shifting the topography of her nervous system, you give yourself permission to shift yours, also.

In this piece, Jennifer Hatt explores the power of the considered choice point and all the "shoulds" that come up before making a congruent choice.

Today I feel the pull of habits versus truth, habits formed from a childhood of avoiding danger, risk, and mistakes that no longer serve the life of an adult yearning to create, do and be all that is possible, and then some. And today, I allowed the chance to choose differently. 

Indeed, it is in that moment of giving ourselves the chance to choose differently that magic unfurls.

Conversations like Decloaking put you back in the driver’s seat of your life, and in fact, insist you stay there, minute by minute, choice by choice. No handing off responsibility to a therapist or drug or trusted friend. You are the expert of you. I am the expert of me. Empowering? Absolutely! But in this moment when I’m about to plunge into freezing cold water, well, what the hell do I do now?

It was a perfect afternoon, perfect moment by moment, and a perfection I would not have experienced if I hadn’t trusted what I wanted, surrendered, and opened to whatever happened next.
