It may help to imagine mind as empty house with open doors and windows. Breezes drift in and out like birds, now cool and now warm, entering and leaving through the open windows and doors. Some are quiet and calm, some are noisy and demanding.
Like an empty house, you can simply be, welcoming all that arises — open, spacious, and accommodating, allowing the flow of experience to arise and fall without comment.
As you relax and allow the mind to open like the sky, let go of any thought of what relaxation is.
There is no need to adjust or change anything; no need to improve or wonder if you are doing it ‘right’.
Let even these instructions fly in and out of sky-like mind like a gentle breeze, or a small, lovely bird.
