The Art of Letting Go
The Daoists have a name for this: wu-wei. Wu-wei is non-doing. Action through inaction. The Dao De Ching suggests, "Through nonaction nothing is left undone." [3] It recommends following the path of least resistance: "Act without action; work without effort, taste without savoring." [4] Consider your own breath: it is easy to exhale, to let go of the breath. It is the yang-portion of the breath, the inhalation, that requires effort, but exhaling is simply relaxing the muscles of inspiration. We let go of the breath and it leaves us. We don't have to try to exhale: we allow it to happen.
