We all carry expectations—about how the day should unfold, how other people should respond, how productive we should be, and even how meditation should feel.
Then reality arrives with plans of its own.
In this episode of Why Can’t I Meditate?, we explore what happens when the moment in front of us does not match the picture we created in our minds. Meditation may not persuade life to follow the schedule, but it can help us notice our resistance, soften around the word should, and respond to what is actually happening.
This episode includes This Week’s Gentle Practice and a short guided meditation to help you hold expectations more lightly without giving up on what matters to you.
Sometimes peace does not come from making reality match our plans. Sometimes it begins when we loosen our grip on how we thought things were supposed to be.
The August Meditation Challenge is a gentle invitation to return to daily meditation with more consistency, support, and ease.
Throughout the month, I’ll share a short daily message in our free Skool community to help you stay encouraged and connected to the practice.
And if you’d like a simple library of guided practices you can return to anytime, my Audio Meditation Library on Palette is available for $5 a month.
If you’d like more personalized guidance in your meditation practice, I offer one-on-one mentoring.
