It’s no accident that this episode falls on the day before Christmas. A day when many - though by no means all - of us, come together to give and receive.We all recognise there can be complexity in these kinds of festivities. But sometimes it can be useful to break down a single aspect of what’s entangled within the complexity and see how we can shine the light of awareness to help create a shift. So, today we’re exploring the art of generously receiving, through the 3 As: Acknowledging, Allowing, Accepting.This is a multi-level concept. I believe it applies whether we're being offered something from the universe, nature, others or our own wisest inner self.  We see...There are many things that can get in the way of receiving When we acknowledge something we help bring it into existenceA willingness to be vulnerable means we allow the safe passage of the thing we are being offeredAccepting the thing exactly as it is - without judgement - is not the same as losing our boundariesMaybe the most generous gift we can give is to learn how to receive generously ourselvesI'm aware there is complexity within this exploration too, so the invitation is simply to see what you receive as you listen.RESOURCES Karen Mead article: https://tinybuddha.com/blog/learning-to-receive-5-steps-to-opening-up/Tara Brach RAIN: https://youtu.be/W8e_tAEM80k?si=acft-69cYqr590QmWilliam Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice, Act IV, Scene IJoin the mailing list & receive the mini-course '3 little acts of self-compassion', completely free https://hennyflynn.ck.page/6e83d0227eExplore Henny's coaching, books, retreats, courses & events https://www.hennyflynn.co.uk/
