unclinging
Not holding on
Unclinging describes the act or state of releasing a grip, letting go of something previously held tightly.
The word appears most often in spiritual or psychological contexts, where it suggests releasing attachment to desires, outcomes, or fixed ideas: The practice of unclinging from expectations brought her peace.
It implies deliberate release rather than mere dropping.
