THE TIP IS TO BE LIGHTLY AWARE

IMS Retreat 2012 Q&A Group A#1 (45:00-47:49)

Yogi: I had a very busy 7 weeks of work before coming here and there are the aftereffects.

Sayadaw: Over here, think of yourself as being on vacation – don’t practice intensely.

Just allow yourself to be lightly aware of whatever comes up in the mind and be happy with that.

When you have had a busy schedule and then you allow yourself to relax, you will feel drowsy as the tiredness comes in. Let it be – just be patient with the practice – and don’t blame yourself.
