Right now,

There is nothing you need to change,

Nothing you need to push away.

This moment is already here.

Often,

The habit is to move away from what we feel,

To distract,

To fix,

To get through.

For now,

You can stay.

Notice what is present in a simple way.

Thoughts may be here.

Emotions may be here.

Sensations in the body may be here.

You don't need to label them.

You don't need to understand them.

Just allow what is already here to be noticed.

Staying with experience does not mean liking it.

It does not mean agreeing with it.

It simply means you are not leaving yourself.

You are allowed to be present without fixing.

You are allowed to be here as you are.

If the mind moves away,

That's okay.

You can gently return to what is already here.

Presence is not an achievement.

It is a willingness,

A willingness to stay.

Stay.

Take a quiet moment now to feel what it's like to remain here.

When you're ready,

Allow the day to unfold from this place.
