Hi friends,
It's Beth.
Welcome to your 6-minute,
Midday,
Or anytime,
Permission meditation practice.
In broaching the idea of permission in our morning practice,
We may have had moments over the course of this morning or this day that have brought an awareness of how permission affects our energetic and emotional investment in specific situations.
Where have you had a moment when you felt you had full and complete permission to feel,
Sense,
Or do something that felt good to you?
How did you take advantage of that permission?
On the reverse,
Where have you experienced a situation where you did not feel you had complete permission to do something that you wanted to do?
How did this lack of permission affect the situation?
How did this lack of permission affect your body,
Mind,
Or energy?
It could be as simple as not feeling that you had the right to say something,
Or that you did not have permission to do something that you love to do.
Consider both types of permission,
And feel into the idea of how perceived permission kept you from fully enjoying the moment,
Or how it allowed you to completely dive in to a rich experience without hesitation.
For the next minute of your practice,
Investigate which of these moments felt more powerful to you,
And what lessons you might have learned about permission from that specific experience,
Allowing yourself to fully indulge in the rest created through your brief meditation practice this afternoon.
Linger here in the awareness of where you unconsciously seek permission,
And where you automatically presume permission.
Which one brings you closer to your authentic self?
How can you find more of that in the rest of your day?
