Allowing the Mind to Be Where It Is
Week One · Day Four brings the practice of Allowing with Grace into the realm of the mind where many of our quiet struggles with control, certainty, and self-judgment take place.
In this Kitchen Talk episode, we explore how the mind often rushes to interpret, fix, or resolve experience before it’s ready, especially during seasons of descent.
Rather than forcing clarity or silencing uncertainty, listeners are invited to practice good sportsmanship with their own thinking: allowing thoughts to arise without immediately treating them as commands, conclusions, or verdicts.
Set within the Yule season of personal catabasis, this reflection reframes mental steadiness as patience rather than certainty, and wisdom as the ability to stay present without knowing.
A simple, practical reorientation is offered to support clarity without pressure and reparenting at the root.
Listeners are warmly invited to continue walking this thirteen-week season in shared reflection and lived experience at CrowsCupboard.com.
The practice continues
