This week on Mindful Mondays, we explore what it means to truly allow — to let life, emotions, and even other people simply be as they are.
Spiritual teacher, Ram Dass, once observed that when we look at trees, we accept them - crooked, bent, imperfect, yet utterly beautiful. But when we look at people and ourselves, we judge. In this episode, Ashley explores how we can return to that same compassionate seeing toward others and toward ourselves. Blending mindfulness, neuroscience, and psychology, we explore how allowing what is can reduce anxiety, soften resistance, and bring peace to the neurodivergent mind and body.
Ashley also shares a modern Buddhist parable and Jon Kabat-Zinn’s timeless reminder:
“Give yourself permission to allow this moment to be exactly as it is,
and allow yourself to be exactly as you are.”
The episode closes with a deeply hypnotic guided meditation - a forest journey into self-acceptance and inner stillness.
