Description: In this gentle meditation, we explore the feeling of resistance — that familiar voice that says, “I don’t want to meditate right now.” Rather than fighting it, we’ll learn how that very resistance can become the practice itself. Through compassionate awareness, we’ll discover that mindfulness doesn’t require perfection — only presence.
