Meditation: Letting Go and Letting Be

TARA BRACH
About this episode

Meditation: Letting Go and Letting Be - We leave presence by contracting into thoughts and resisting the changing flow of life. This meditation guides us in gently releasing thoughts and opening to this mysterious life, just as it is.

Let go of what is past
Let go of what may come
Let go of what is happening now
Don't try to figure anything out
Don't try to make anything happen
Relax right now and rest

~ Tibetan teaching
