Welcome to this meditative space.
Can we just relax for a moment?
Spend a few minutes together.
Maybe we can allow this to totally not be a serious thing.
Let's ground in to the present moment.
And just remember that here we are right now.
Let's take three deep breaths and just invite ourselves to come back to right now.
Let's breathe.
I want to invite us to recognize the adorable silliness in believing the mind's content.
And of course for us to do that,
We have to look at it without any judgment at all.
We can simply be curious,
Fascinated even.
But just recognize the capacity for the mind to believe its stories,
To think things are happening that aren't actually happening at all.
It's fascinating,
Isn't it?
It's also beautiful,
Beautiful that we could tell such amazing stories.
And furthermore,
That we can feel those stories,
Even if they're scary.
And that's beautiful because whatever you're imagining,
It's not really happening.
So I invite us to not only recognize this,
But to rest in that place in between,
Where there is this moment right now,
And then your capacity to imagine all sorts of things.
And in the middle there is a stillness.
It's a stillness that allows for nothing,
And a stillness that allows for everything,
All the stories.
Let's take three deep breaths and just rest in that space in between.
And maybe celebrate a little bit that nothing's actually happening.
Let's breathe.
It's perfectly fine to tell stories.
It's a gift.
This something we call the imagination.
It's where creating begins.
But let's,
If we can,
Just be a little bit more aware that the stories aren't just stories.
Okay?
Okay.
Go play.
Thanks for meditating with me today.
