Join me and Sune as we investigate the Attitudes of Mindfulness; this week – Non-Striving. Really??
Non-striving is a radical practice that takes patience and non-judging to cultivate.
How do we do it? Begin by becoming familiar with the way striving feels in the body and seeing how what you feel changes when you practice non-doing. Consider choosing one activity a day where you focus on the process, with no concern for outcome. Stay curious and be creative!
Finally, remember what Laozi said, “Do non-doing, strive for non-striving, savor the flavourless, make much of little, repay enmity with virtue; plan for difficulty when it is still easy, do the great while it is still small.”
