What does non-striving in mindfulness mean? What is the invitation of non-striving? Why might you want to try it?

Non-striving isn't about giving up aspirations and goals, it is about letting go. Letting go of control, of needing things to be a certain way, and/or to get a certain outcome.

Non Striving is about patience, peace, presence, joy and transformation.

Instead of constantly doing, non-striving is about focusing on being.

Non-striving is allowing yourself to experience the moment without judgment.

It creates space to simply be rather than always reacting to try to change things.

We are human BEINGS, not human DOINGS.
“Being is where the magic and healing happen.” - Dr. Holly MacKenna

Non-striving involves accepting yourself as you are and others as they are. It is about being content where you are, without the need to be anyone else or anywhere else.

Non-striving increases the richness in your life. It helps you find the extraordinary in the ordinary.
The space opened up in non-striving opens portals to clarity, curiosity, creativity, and connection.

Where are some areas of life that you would like to adopt a non-striving attitude? What are some ways you might try non-striving? What could you commit to not doing? What would more “being” look like?
