JUST DROP IT
Drop out of the mind and rest in being.
A practice afternoon with Stephan
Saturday November 14 · 13:30–17:30
Sometimes we become so caught in our thoughts that the world seems no larger than the story we are telling ourselves. We rehearse conversations, anticipate difficulties, and try to think our way into peace.
What happens when, for a moment, we let that whole project rest?
This afternoon is an invitation to explore a simple instruction: drop out of the mind and rest in being. Feel the body sitting here. Hear the sounds around you. Become curious about the awareness in which thoughts come and go—and the possibility that who we are is more spacious than our familiar stories suggest.
“Just drop it” can sound like another demand. We will approach it with tenderness. Thoughts are welcome; we can practise letting them pass without following every one.
Through guided meditations, silent sitting, and gentle mindful movement, we will explore this direct approach together. There will be time to slow down, take a breath, and rest without needing to improve ourselves.
This is the spirit of the direct path: becoming curious about what is already here, even in the midst of a busy, unfinished life. Perhaps the mystical begins quite simply—with meeting an ordinary moment more fully.
Everyone is welcome, whether you are new to meditation or have practised for many years.
Come as you are. Let’s see what happens when we give ourselves a little less to do.
