Transcript

Allow — Compact

Welcome. This is Allow — notice what is here and soften the fight for about a minute.

[Pause 2s]

Make yourself comfortable — sitting, standing, whatever works. Eyes closed is best, if that feels easy. Notice one thing that is here right now. A feeling. A thought. Or an ache in the body. Just one — not a full list.

[Pause 4s]

Stay with it. No need to fix it. No need to fight it. Just let it be here.

[Pause 5s]

If you notice you are fighting it — pushing away, or clinging — soften that fight or clinging a little. Just allow it to be.

[Pause 5s]

Breathe ordinarily. Stay with what is here, without fixing.

[Pause 5s]

If it is still here, that is fine. Allow it again. You do not need to change it.

[Pause 4s]

All is good. You can leave it here.

[Pause 3s]

Alright — that brings us to the end.

Practice this guided a couple of times, then try allowing alone.

Thank you for this minute of allowing.
