Description

In this episode, Craig explores what happens when we stop trying to reach a special state in meditation and allow the moment to unfold naturally, exactly as it is.

Instead of resisting certain thoughts or feelings and grasping for others, he invites us to rest in a posture of openness that makes room for a deeper, already-present freedom to reveal itself.

Through guided practice and teaching, Craig shows how the natural state is not something we create or achieve — it emerges when all of our inner strategies fall away. 

This episode begins with a guided meditation, so you may want to listen at a time when you can be fully present.
