Dzogchen practice
Open awareness, no support
When attention is narrow and tight.
How to do it
Let attention widen to include the room, the sounds, the body, and the trouble at once. Rest as that open field rather than as the one holding it.
Where it comes from
Dzogchen, the Great Perfection, is a Tibetan tradition that points to the natural, already-awake state of awareness. Rather than building something new, practice is recognising what is already present and resting in it.
Drawn from Shift into Freedom: The Science and Practice of Open-Hearted Awareness by Loch Kelly.
