A beautiful warm story and so true. Letting go by breathing and switching off my mind reduces the pressure I lay on myself. It gives a stressless feeling, no pressure on myself from my mind, letting go of the control on myself. Experiencing that, I understand, that not only I, but my social surrounding as well, can lay great pressure on me, from childhood untill now, the social norm is strong. I realized that I don't want this pressure for myself, I too don't want it for the other, my friend, collegae or whomever. In this world of energy giving pressure bounces back, that's natural. I live, I'm energy, so I move and give pressure, but it's my wish to do that in a harmonic way, a joyfull dance, nourishing. I realized that some (often old trauma) situations trigger me in reacting with to big pressure, on people as well on stuff. It's not my wish but my reaction on anxiety to lose control (and eventually die). Breathing helps me to quiet down, to make contact with myself, switching of my mind creates stillness, no worry's, nothing. So I can reset again. From this calm state of mind and relaxed bodyfeeling, I can get in better contact with my passion and talent for life. It's a though but great journey. I'm sorry that Insa has the urge to apologize for breathing being esoteric and explains that it's proven with hard scientific material evidence, like esoteric is not done. It's a good thing that the esoteric wisdom is returning, ancient culture qualities are great. They worked with energy more than materials, people were less materialized more energetic. We gained a lot with science and technique, to become independant, but we lost something too. Knowing everything is energy, and that within quantum physics 'everything' is possible. With material devices you can only 'messure' material stuff, that's 5% of All there is. Quantum is not material but it materializes by consiousness. So indeed, I more often put off my smartphone, internet, and tv too, it costs me to much time, and time is energy.

It's sad how people don't want to watch talks on 'letting go'. We so badly want to be in control of life all the time. I'm trying to learn to let go off control for good.

Wow, glad she overcome herself. She sounds humble and selfless. She is smart to discover her real self.

Note to self: 3 things to unleash the power of letting go. 1. Choose trust (antidote to control) 2. Switch phone off- digital detox (switching off the outside- being lost in outside approval) 3. Breathe- meditation (start gradually)

I've watched many TED Talks videos wanting to gain something from other people's experiences. They all felt more self congratulatory than sharing something meaningful. I'll will keep watching.

After planning everything in my life including a pregnancy that went sad and tragically (termination at 24weeks due to chromosomial abnormalities), i let go. No longer planning, no longer worring.

“Allowing life to take over” . So powerful, amazing!!!

Congratulations to this amazing TedTalk. Already shared it to some of my friends. So it's time to switch of my cell phone and start to breath.

Choose trust. I like this antidote for control. Thank you.

I am the QUEEN of control. It's taken over my life and I have forgotten how to live in the moment. This video truly changed my views on this illusion of control. Fantastic.

One lives in a fools paradise. Do your best abilities to live with honesty n integrity. Letting go is the best things. Ultimately destiny has a part to play so like she said just breathe n trust destiny,or life. Inspiring. Thank you, bless you. All your dreams come true.

I needed to hear this. Thank you!

great, great and great! thank you Insa!

We are control freaks BECAUSE We care what others think of us.

Beautiful talk..!!

Powerful.

Amazing 🙌

Wow she’s shaking, but powerful speech

The hardest thing is to trust people before they become successful. The greatest gift one can receive is receiving trust when they most need it.

Asoum techniques 😍😍😍

Control is an illusion

Powerful speech.

I hope i make it this time 😥🙌🏻 wish me luck guys day 2

I don't feel that trust is the catalyst of control but fear. Trusting too easily can invite personalities, people that will see this as a weakness. Being conscience of our breath is a useful tool in self regulating but to do this without truly knowing the cause or causes, say if you are an anxious person, can exacerbate the problem.

My first question would have been "Is my horse alright?"

Will billionaires "let go" of their wealth and power in order to make a more equitable society? The answer is NO.

Turn to God. He is your Creator and you owe your existence to Him. Give Him glory.

16:55 looks like there's at least 5 ppl on the phone :D

Let her go ...

Control...thw ironi that this film is on the website off WEF🤦‍♀️

I watch one of these and the date she says is his birthday...

Figures from Berlin! Still can’t give up that power grab.

There was a time when Ted had only extraordinary talks. This is ridiculous.

Two minutes silence for those clicked for break up video 😂

I Will control, no You!

Please send this to Putin

Let go of your position of power and go live on the street

Honking car locking wakes people up and creates Noise Stress Everywhere. We can hear it inside our homes when you park. It wakes our kids up. Please! Break the Honk Habit!! Please lock your car quietly with light flash only. The Auto Industry needs to use technology that doesn't emit noise into our communities and neighborhoods. Thank you.

I remember when TED talks were less banal.

good thing she didn't end up like Christopher Reeve; a bit too "new age" and facile for me; lesson to me is that we must allow some "chaos" (less our control, allowing for "everyone has a different idea") but then you have the challenge of trying to "steer" possibilities in "good" directions; "trust" as a panacea is just as bad as "control" as an absolute, IMO

Too much prologue. Insight starts @8:30

The labored street disturbingly wait because vacuum intracellularly follow since a incompetent case. omniscient, chilly certification

No offence, Insa. It sounds like "letting go" is easier achieved when you have a paid staff to pick up your slack. So essentially, you've succeeded in delegating to competent employees (like all good managers should do anyways) and then by shutting off your phone, you walk away from your responsibilities and spend your time in meditation. If only we all had the privilege of doing so. This advice is no good to the average person working a shift. All you've done is prove that you don't need a CEO watching over your sholder to make a business run if it's set up with the right people. You meditate, other CEO's play golf. Same difference. Congratulations on figuring out how to make money while working less hours. Imagine if all of your employees did that? You got hurt riding a horse (sorry to hear). Most people ride the bus. The problem is that you're surrounded by "yes men". Give me a shout if you want to hire someone who will give it to you straight instead of BS'ing you. This is so out of touch with reality. Am I wrong?

Oh my god, the three techniques to breathe, turn off phone, chose trust? Trust in whom when you've been betrayed? Oh my gosh, could this get any more trite? I am convinced this is a bunch of b.s. by the speaker to get on a stage.
