Put your baggage down

What stories do we tell ourselves without us realising When we were growing up stories were so good to instil learning and patterns

Through the ages stories have passed down traditions and codes

There is a strong purpose to stories giving us direction

Listen with mother, jackanory, the famous five all will strike memories of innocence and times of growth

As humans stories serve us well

When they are the right stories

Now with the baggage of life, the feelings from hard times and scars it is all too easy for those stories that still get told, sometimes without us even realising, to hold us back because of fears of previous patterns

Just like returning from a long holiday, dragging your big bags from the flight arrivals conveyor belt

How long will you carry those bags Until you get a trolley All the way to the car All the way home Through your working week?

Simply let your hands open and drop your baggage Let it go if it isn't serving you well
