1960s to 2019, that’s how long I’ve lived and this is the best definition and explanation of the word “Surrender”. Bells are ringing and fireworks are firing up in the intellectual mind and emotions of the heart. You got my subscription.
I definitely want to surrender. I’ve got a lot to do to improve my life, mostly stemming from trauma and mental health issues and I’m exhausted. But I don’t want to walk away. I’m just tired and lost.
I send so much love your way and hope you have access to local in person support for trauma recovery and mental health. Reach out anytime here on the channel or via my website if you want to share, have questions or want links to specific topics/resources. Bx
10 years at my desk on my writing project. Gave it everything. Now, exhausted, 56 battling ageism for work, am waiting too conquer the dream. Done, but grateful for you're great thoughts and clarity. Many friends have given up on me,, not giving up. My mentor died suddenly and left me too continue. Have given everything too the dream. Surrender, is quite powerful.Thanks The Daily Positive. Waiting to hear back from the people who are looking at my work. Wish more connected with your channel. Patiently waiting with FAITH.
I want to thank you for this video! I tragically lost one of the most important people in my life 9 months ago and his loss has been utterly devastating. I now have exhausted myself endlessly looking for answers to his meaningless death and to know if he's ok and hoping he's looking down on us and is still in existence with us somehow. I've also become fixated on the meaning of life as well as what my purpose is (because everything that seemed so important isn't anymore). It has been a very difficult process only making baby steps and at times wanting to literally "give up". Ironically, his last text to me was "never give up" (this has haunted me terribly because he gave up!! ). Whenever I see anything that says "never give up" it jumps out to me and I'm compelled to seek it out. I tattooed his name on my arm with little birds. Unbelievably, half way through your the video, I noticed that the birds on your shirt are the SAME exact birds that are tattooed next to his name. What a synchronicity!!! I'm starting to believe his text may have been a gift but I haven't been able to see until now. I now realize that "giving up" is never an option but surrendering is. Thank you so much!! ❤😘
I feel like my life has been one long lesson in surrendering. I'm still learning how I can do it more comfortably. There are some stubborn situations that I've felt I've done everything in my power to resolve, and I know continuing to surrender is what's called for. Thanks as always for your wonderful insight!
I’m watching this again because you nailed it on describing doing everything I know how to do, being consistent with action and faith and still not seeing results. My whole body feels numb and giving up seems like all there is but I know I’m meant for so much more. Your definition of surrender is really beautiful and exactly what I needed to hear and embrace. Thank you ❤❤❤!!!!!
I have a Type-A personality. Competent. Independent. Efficient. But sometimes, no matter how good I may be at something, there are obstacles that get in my way. Obstacles that I have no power over. You have no clue how much this helped me. I’m not the type of individual to give up, so the clarification on surrender, ASKING FOR HELP, is a new concept to me, but it offers such a huge relief. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much on this video, I really wish to surrender but I didn't know how, until I felt like I was actually giving up instead of surrendering. So I just googled my question. Thank you for this instruction and I immediately felt so much better after watching.
Woke up at 2 AM with a massive anxiety attack about an unresolved issue that has been haunting me for the past seven years with no resolution in sight . The end results could be devastating, or if not a dream come true, at least a comfortable peace and end to this ongoing horror story in my life. The flow of emotion has been so dramatically up and down, backwards and sideways, that it is affecting my health, just when I have gotten a good grip on pushing forward while I wait patiently and positively, the negative, traumatizing thoughts will creep back in and bombard me. I signed onto RUclips and searched "when you want to give up" and your video jumped out at me. I always believed in no coincidences, just messages, and this has given me hope that there is light at the end of the tunnel and implementing your advice will bring a resolution, as I am very keen on picking up signs and signals all around me. Thank you so much for the boost of confidence and hope.
You're so welcome Nancy. And if you need more help please reach out on my website as a private coaching session together could help you more deeply with this situation. Blessings, Berndette
I recognise myself so much in this. I'm also dealing with anxiety and panic due to unresolved, traumatising thoughts and this channel has given me a lot of insights.
TQ B. I enjoyed this session. Here's my take away message from your video: Surrender is the conscious energy you embody as you give the challenge you are experiencing up to God as you practice faith, trust and patience, with the believe that you will receive guidance eventually. Surrender is the cultivating of these abilities - trust, faith, patience in those challenging times.
I wish I could give this 10,000 thumbs up!!.. thank you so much for what you are doing! You have really helped me .. more than you know.. blessings to you!
Thank you! I receive your 10,000 thumbs up, LOL :) Love your positive energy. Thanks for being here with us, and I wish you a beautiful week ahead. B :)
Thank you Bea! Clear and concise help on a tough topic. This kinda sums up all the advice I've been getting from many different places around the web (law of attraction, life coaching, mindfulness teachings, spirituality)
Hey Gabriela, you're welcome. A pleasure to share this with you. Glad it was helpful and resonant with other things you've been receiving. Have a great weekend. B
This is such a great help B - my weight loss has been a dismal failure & desperately need to lose excess weight due to health reasons Just don't know what to do anymore & then along comes this video -WOW !! Wish I could give you a big "Thank You " hug B. for your amazing help !
Thank you so much for this video! This made so much sense to me. Everything you said was very clear and very true. I don't have all of the answers and I'm not alone in this. I definitely don't want to give up on my goals but I am at a stand still as to what to do next. But I thank you for this!
I want to wave my white flag, although I’m not sure I have one. I keep running against the wind (to quote Bob Seger) or swimming against the flow. I can actually feel it. It’s draining, exhausting, and getting me nowhere. I just don’t know how to let go and just go with it. I hope to figure it out.
One of the best things I can suggest for this if you've found yourself unable to let go and keep trapped in or triggered by life/the past etc (unable to accept, be present, find peace) is to use EFT/tapping. It's a phenomenally effective self help technique that is easy to learn and use from home yourself. It is liberating when used in a structured way, to process, release and free ourselves of the inner baggage and any resistance we have to life/others/ourselves. That is helpful as a first step to let go, navigating out of resistance into a state of neutral/observation/peace/calmer. Here's an article about EFT/tapping in case it interests you. I also recommend The Tapping Solution book, website, and app. bit.ly/3zhtZIZ Much love B
What if you have surrendered and you're still not getting answers to your prayers? I'm beyond frustrated and angry. I pray until I'm blue in the face and nothing works.
Oh I hear you and have felt like that at times in my life too. And it can feel frustrating and painful to hear people say "just surrender"! Here's another video I made in case it's helpful... - How to Have Faith When You're Not Feeling it - bit.ly/3cGB5x2 It's been many years since I made the above linked vid, so just in case I didn't cover it in the vid (my memory fails me in this moment!)... I also recommend these prompts, and while these may not feel like the answers you want, see if you find any relief with one practice one time: - When we are not getting results, or answers or signs of support or progress, we are often left with nothing but "to be". To sit where we are and to let go. - But in that letting go, often arises frustration, sadness, anger, resentment, disappointment, confusion, sense of abandonment, aloneness.... - So the practice is "can we meet ourselves and our feelings in that moment, without wronging life or the situation, and without wronging our own feelings, and simply process our feelings and make our #1 priority to find peace/relief here and now. - For that, i love the practice of EFT/tapping (see The Tapping Solution book, app, website, or see RUclips channels by Brad Yates and Julie Schiffman - linked on my channel homepage). When we feel like no answers are coming, sometimes it's about taking our focus off what we think we need/want or trying to get somewhere, and to find a way to release all resistance to where we stand and whatever feelings are coming up here and now. Once we find peace in this moment, we are neither trying to accelerate forward nor reverse back nor handbraking ourselves, we are instead in neutral, a place where our intuition is clearer about what to do. I appreciate that is easier said than done when it comes to things like getting a roof over one's head, clothes on your body or food to feed yourself or your family. And yet in the stuckness the whole thing about surrender is that it is often the very last option when nothing else is left, simply to find relief from the emotional torment of trying to get progress and feeling unsupported by life/others/society/creator/universe. Message me back with any questions or insights you have. With love B
I am too frustrating with relationships feeling blocked and disliked. Crying it’s drained my energy I’m interested in things too much distress I never get an answer I feel like I’m loosing my passion sometimes feeling disliked most of the time I need help and I feel ignored
Hey Lindsey. I hear you! Right now might be a good time to focus on yourself and what feels good. Anything to nourish you, soothe you, care for yourself. Taking pressure off, taking the attention off relationships momentarily and giving yourself space to just be, to heal. I have lots of beautiful meditations and affirmation audios on the channel you can use. I recommend every morning and every night. It shifts perspective and uplifts, and helps to create a sense of peace. From there it's easier to find a way forward. 💖 love, Bernadette
I hear your pain and/or frustration. Surrender is definitely not about doing nothing, nor is it about continuing to do the same thing over and over again when it's not working. It's more an energetic detachment from things having to go a certain way or trying to control what we know we can't control, taking whatever action we know we can take that might help us, and listening to our intuition :)
Hi B. I am struggling with trying stay faithful to a vision that I got from God over 15 yrs ago. at the time my vision was supported with 3 clear sign that caused me to believe firmly in it. from that point on, in spite of the many challenges, i held onto it without wavering. Fast-forward 6months ago I was faced with some issues that challenge me to want to give up believing in my vision. bcuz of the length of time. Instead I ask God to send me another sign to support me in maintaining my vision. I did get one. Therefore, I continue to move forward. right now I am faced with some issues that challenging me and I'm having a hard time with surrendering my emotions bcuz of the long suffering in waiting it is effecting my ability to understand clearly what is blocking my vision from coming into reality. I need some help

Hi Kae, thanks for reaching out. Lovely to connect with you! The way I do the coaching now is I have an online membership with all my resoures which you can join, monthly or annual, and pause/cancel anytime, and inside the membership I provide coaching support to members, including personalized Q&A coaching advice to individual members questions. You get to login and use the forums and post questions, situations, experiences and I reply to those for you in the members area. I also have 2 other separate in depth coaching programs, one mind, one spirituality, and in those programs I coach individual participants on their unique needs and questions via the forums and messaging system in the members area, so you can get my help to address unique needs as you go through the programs or the members courses, classes, resources. I also hold live events for members and we do Q&A in that way too. I have lots of former 1:1 private coaching clients who now get my support in the members area this way, so that would be the best option (as I'm not doing Zoom face to face 1:1, rather everything via the members area). Let me know if you have any questions. You can reach me at support@bernadettelogue.com if you want to sign up. If you're joining, I'll see you in the members area and look forward to guiding, coaching and supporting soon! Love, B

I always thought surrendering was equal to giving up. So, thank you for making the distinction very clear!
YAY, glad to help you see the surrender goodness!! B :)
Thank you for this powerful understanding, and showing me that I made the next right decision for myself; surrender.
🧡💛🧡

I surrendered after losing my job and being rejected over and over again and I became homeless. So, now what? can I "give up" right about now?
