Surrender and Allow in 2026
At the beginning of the New Year, we often hope and wonder if the new year will bring more abundance, positive opportunities, loving and supportive relationships and if we will receive what we long for. In any given year unexpected challenges might come our way and sometimes we are graced with good fortune. Energetic influences such as karma, astrology, our soul cycles and our thoughts and attitudes, all come together to create the seemingly random circumstances of our day to day lives.
However, the future is a work in progress. We have an endless amount of choices, decisions and free will that allows us to create as we go. Using our thoughts and visualizing what we want to create is a common practice. However it has its limitations. To create and maintain our desires through our mental energy we must have a consistent level of clear positive thoughts and emotions and a healthy and healed unconscious. When we slip into negative or self-defeating thoughts or feel disempowering emotions, we might manifest this energy in our day to day lives.
In my book, Raise Your Frequency and Manifest Abundance, I suggest that we take a different approach to create. When we surrender our desired outcomes, we can invite divine higher forces to manifest through us. As we let go of expectations and trying to make it all happen, our highest good more easily comes our way. And what manifests is often more fulfilling then we had imagined.
We often think of manifestation as material and financial increase, physical, mental and emotional health and well being, loving relationships and other tangible forms of abundance. Yet feelings of inner peace, the healing of past emotional and spiritual wounds, a focused sense of purpose, courage and the ability to walk away from what no longer serves us are also forms of abundance. Our spirit feels and knows what is in our highest good. Release and let go of how this will manifest. Let the shadows of darkness and fear be illuminated by light. There is no lack in a universe that is always in a state of unceasing creativity and abundance.

Meditation: Letting Go To the Force of Love
Become comfortable and begin to breathe long deep relaxing breaths. Exhale any stress and tension. Continue to breathe and release any stress and anxiety through the exhale. Breathe and relax.
Begin by calling to mind an issue, concern, need or desire that you would like to release to a higher presence. Silently within your heart or aloud say something like this:
I release and let go of _________ to the force of love.
You can repeat this statement a few times while you take a deep long breath, exhale and relax. As you continue to breathe deep breaths, become aware of any stress, anxiety, worry, fear or grief. You can place your hand on the area of your body where it feels as if stress, anxiety, tension or pain is the most intense.
Repeat the phrase,
I release and let go of ___________ to the force of love
Even though I don’t always trust what may happen and it’s hard to not step in and try to control the outcome, my intention is to allow divine presence to intervene for my highest good.
Continue to breathe and let go.
Become aware of any inner shifts and sensations. Listen for the still soft whispers of the divine presence, a quivering in your heart and soul and the inner assurance that divine activity is at work in your life.
As you continue to focus your attention inwardly, listen, feel and become aware of any sensations and insights. However, don’t expect to receive answers and know how your highest good will manifest and when.
Releasing and letting go of your need to know how your highest good will manifest further allows the divine to be the creative activity at work within your consciousness. Breathe into your heart and listen to the sensations and nudges of the force of love. In the high vibration energy of spiritual consciousness you are transported beyond the limitations of cause and effect. Breathe and allow this high vibration energy to flow through your being. Open your heart and fill yourself with the calm and peace of loving energy.
Pay attention to your intuition, inner guidance, dreams and be alert for synchronicities for the next few days, weeks and even months. In some form divine activity will manifest in your highest good.
Repeat this practice as many times as you feel necessary and led to do so. Each time you will more deeply let go and surrender. As you practice consciously releasing and letting go of your worries, stresses, concerns and control, the force of love intervenes. Abundance, love and joy in whatever form is most aligned with your highest good, manifests.



Thank You Sherrie, I’m grateful for this reminder, and I pulled your book off the shelf to find and enjoy the guidance I always find within. Your timing is perfect. I’ve not received signs or encounters with my spirit son, Henry, over the holiday. I believe your teachings will help me meet him halfway very soon. :) All good wishes to you and yours for a new year filled with goodness.
Thank you Sherrie. I’ve been stressing about an upcoming surgery and I need to surrender to a higher power. This is most helpful 🙏🏻
