What happens when someone tells you to relax? Often, the directive to relax or let go results in further tightening. When we attempt to relax on demand, we just can’t make it happen. Stress can then increase as we wrestle with what we may perceive as failure. Things change when we view letting go as a process versus a goal.
In this mindfulness meditation, guided by Sean Fargo, we’re invited to soften our attachment to doing, to soften our need for control. In the process, we experience degrees of opening into the spaciousness of our experience. No longer wrestling with right or wrong, relaxed or not, we get closer to the calm we long for.
Listen in a safe, quiet place where you can be relatively free from distraction. Practice with eyes opened or closed, in a posture that balances comfort with alertness. May this meditation be of benefit to you in your mindfulness journey.
