The Art of Letting Go: A Practical Guide to Releasing What Holds You Back

By Gilda — Certified Journalist & Founder of Italian Girl Touch Letting go is one of those phrases we hear everywhere — in self‑help books, in yoga classes, in conversations with well‑meaning friends. It sounds elegant, almost poetic. But in reality, letting go is messy, uncomfortable, and deeply human. It requires honesty, courage, and a willingness to step into the unknown. I learned this in a way I didn’t expect — not through heartbreak, not through conflict, but through something far more ordinary: a drawer. Yes, a drawer. A few months ago, I decided to declutter my home. Not for aesthetic reasons, but because I felt mentally overloaded. I had been juggling work, personal commitments, and a sense of constant pressure that seemed to follow me everywhere. My mind felt crowded, and I needed space — literally and metaphorically. So I opened a drawer I hadn’t touched in years. Inside, I found old notebooks, unfinished ideas, letters I never sent, and objects I had kept “just in case...

The Power of Slowing Down: Why Taking a Step Back Moves You Forward

In a world that glorifies speed, efficiency, and constant productivity, slowing down feels like an act of rebellion. But the truth is, pausing isn’t a setback—it’s a strategy for a more fulfilling and productive life . The Wake-Up Call: Learning to Slow Down Let’s be honest—most of us only stop when forced to. That’s exactly what happened to me. A tough week spent in bed with the flu, struggling against frustration, guilt, and the nagging feeling that I was falling behind. At first, I resisted. But then, I started to realise: slowing down is an opportunity, not an obstacle . We live in an era where speed is everything. We binge content, rush through meals, optimise every moment for maximum efficiency—often at the cost of our well-being. But if nature has taught us anything, it’s that patience leads to progress . 💡 Lao Tzu wisely said, "Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished." The seasons change without being rushed. Plants flourish over time. Yet we, as huma...

How to Start a Path of Self‑Development: A Guide for Beginners

I didn’t begin my self‑development journey out of curiosity or ambition. It started after one of the most difficult and disorienting periods of my life - a time when everything I thought was solid seemed to collapse at once. There’s a particular kind of clarity that comes when you’ve touched the lowest ground. It’s not dramatic or loud; it’s quiet, almost tender. When you have nothing left to lose, you finally stop pretending. You stop performing. You stop negotiating with yourself. And in that raw space, something new begins. For me, it wasn’t a single moment but a slow awakening. I realised that if I didn’t take responsibility for my inner world - my thoughts, my emotions, my habits, my patterns - I would keep repeating the same cycles. I had spent years taking care of everything and everyone else, but I had never truly learned how to take care of myself. That realisation was both painful and liberating. From that point on, self‑development wasn’t a trend or a hobby. It was s...
