Teaching - Letting Go With an Open Heart
For Couples: Practices

8m 11s
How do you meet endings? Do you offer a blessing to what is passing? Or do you find yourself clenching, resisting, longing for what was—or what could have been?
For many, especially feminine beings—or the feminine in all of us—endings can feel like unwelcome visitors. We want to stay in the sweetness of a moment, soaking up every last drop. But every moment ends. Every wave recedes. And how we meet that truth reveals so much about our relationship to life and love.
In this 8-minute teaching from Fierce Love (Austin, 2024), John offers insight into how to hold the pose of openness during endings—how to stay connected even as things fall away, and how to recognize the patterns that keep us from letting go.
When we learn to open through endings, rather than close down, we deepen our capacity to love fully, live honestly, and bless the moment we’re in—even as it transforms.
