YK’s 365 RELEASE: A practice in non-attachment
For the next 365 days, beginning today September 8, 2010, I will be letting go of one thing a day.This is to teach me, with intentionality, how to practice non-attachment, letting go, and change.
The guidelines I have made for myself in regards to what I release are as follows:
It cannot be “perishable” (e.g. food, tickets to shows, flights, etc.)
It cannot be money.
It must be a physical object (e.g. clothes, books, supplies).
It must be something I have had for at least 1 year.
It must be given away, not sold.
Updated guideline:
I will not give away something that someone has given to me.
If you want to be up on the progress of this exercise, which I am calling “365 Release”, I will be using #365release on Twitter, and it will be under the category “365 release” on this blog.
[I created the 365 Release Project to practice non-attachment, letting go and change by giving away 1 thing a day for 1 year. The background, vision and guidelines to the 365 RELEASE project are here. The running list of everything I have released is here.]
Wow, just what I need! I’m going to follow your journey with great interest while trying to navigate my own!
Blessings,
Sissy
