NOTE

The Shift to Being in Meditation Practice

The shift to being in meditation practice involves intentionally letting go of the domain of doing and dropping into being awake or aware. It means learning to inhabit a state of being at home without the pursuit of self-improvement. The formal meditation practice requires observing the thoughts and emotions without getting sucked into them, thereby gaining awareness and regaining control of one's reactions. This shift leads to recognizing and restraining the influence of external triggers, taking responsibility for personal reactions, and optimizing clarity and kindness for overall well-being.
