You don't need any experience. You just need to begin.

Why meditate?

These days, when people ask that question, they're usually asking about mindfulness. And here is what mindfulness actually is:

It is the practice of meeting the present moment — over and over again — with non-judgment and care.

That sounds simple at first. But when we really consider how much of our lives we spend judging and criticising ourselves and others, craving after what we don't have, longing, lusting, numbing out — when we honestly look at how rarely we are able to simply meet the present moment as it is — we begin to understand what a deeply profound invitation this really is.

Mindfulness is an invitation to let all of that go. To reconnect, again and again, to what is actually here. Right in front of us. Right here and now. and this. and this too. With less judgment and more care, we step into a fuller life. We become more available to meet the present moment with honesty and authenticity.

And this includes how we meet ourselves. We are part of the present moment too. It is not that we stand here looking out at a world we will try not to judge. We are in it. We are of it. Which means that mindfulness training is, at its heart, a training in becoming that caring and non-judgmental friend for ourselves.

That is what meditation offers. And it is available to everyone.
