6. Make room for positive things Letting go frees up room for bigger and better things. Emotionally, you can focus on positives.

7. Form a great habit The more you become aware of importance of letting go, easier it will be to do it. Once you form habit, life will be much more effortless.

8. Others will appreciate it When you're not constantly controlling someone or something - you become more authentic and relationships will improve.

9. You find out more about yourself When you're not busy fixing someone else, you have more time to fix yourself!! You can explore and get to know yourself. Remember, only thing we can truly control is our own thoughts and actions!

10. Have fun Once you've established a habit of letting go, you'll see just how much fun you can have with life!!

7. Balance is life giving. Balance is life. Balance is all things about us and about our world. It makes us well rounded, intuitive, happy, and spiritual.

8. Balance gives us meaning. Balance gives us reasons to communicate with others, relate to them, work out differences, coordinate, and pray. The need for balance pushes us to ask questions, search for answers and change lifestyles.

9. Balance gives us direction and strength. Without balance we drift and stray, we don't honor our commitments, we over commit, we have no stable foundation.

10. Balance is freedom. Balance sets us free from worry, obsession and guilt. Balance comes from eliminating tolerations, knowing yourself, using extreme self care, getting clear on needs and values. And that is true freedom!!
