Working from the inside out.

A part of meditation practice is to let thought energy dissipate. The past/future thinking disappears as you absorb yourself in breath. Just like a flow state.

When practicing, if you need the support (like training wheels when learning to ride a bike), add counting. There are so many different ways to count. Find a method most useful to you. 

It's ethically neutral.

Counting doesn't do that much good or anything bad; yet it helps you to stay engaged and connected to your breath. 

Let the breath come to its own rhythm. Don’t slow/speed up the breath – allow its natural rhythm – and watch.

Remember, breathing is the most important thing you do!

We're not required to be anything other than a breathing human being when we sit and meditate. Here, there is no input, but letting go and seeing experiences with a grounding quality of awareness.

A sense of ease (not easy!).

Not clinging to make things happen...that’s craving.

The more you try, the less you have it. It takes learning to release and let go. It is actually not trying but being with your own reality as it is. 

We're not trying to make things happen in practice. Instead, we cultivate the conditions (like silence and stillness), to allow the changes we want to happen. 

Let go, let flow.
