Sit in any comfortable posture.
Allow your body to relax.
Gently close your eyes.
Now bring your awareness to your breath.
Slow inhale,
Soft exhale.
Do not try to control anything.
Just observe.
Bring your attention to the flow of breath.
Notice how each breath comes and goes.
No breath stays.
No breath returns.
The same.
Let this simple truth settle within you.
Everything is changing.
Visualize the night sky.
Stars shining softly.
And slowly,
As the dawn arrives,
They begin to fade.
See the sun rising and even the dawn quietly disappears into daylight.
Feel this rhythm.
Coming,
Going.
Appearing,
Dissolving.
Now bring awareness to a tree.
Once full of green leaves.
Now leaves fall,
Branches remain.
And again,
New birds begin to grow.
Nothing holds its from forever.
Gently bring this awareness to your own life.
Thoughts arise and pass.
Emotions come and go.
Joy appears and fades.
Sorrow comes and leaves.
Do not hold.
Do not resist.
Just witness.
Notice.
When you try to push away discomfort,
There is a tension.
When you try to hold on to happiness,
There is a fear of loss.
Now allow both to be.
Let joy come and go.
Let sorrow come and go.
You remain the witness.
Rest in this understanding.
Nothing is permanent.
Everything flows like a river.
As this realization deepens,
Feel the mind becoming quieter,
Lighter.
Free from struggle.
No need to chase.
No need to escape.
Just be in this moment.
There is a natural stillness.
Action may happen,
But without strain,
Without force,
Like nature itself,
Everything unfolds.
Stay here for a few moments.
In silence,
In acceptance,
Bring your awareness back to your breath.
Take a deep breath and slowly open your eyes.
Carry this calm understanding with you.
Change is nature.
Flow is truth.
And in accepting this,
Peace arises.
