Hearing Before the Mind Grabs It

Hearing Before the Mind Grabs It

A meditation on receiving sound without naming, judging, or organizing.

This 10-minute practice is part of the Mind Expansion Experiences (Me²)—Before the Mind Grabs It series—an invitation to experience reality before the mind organizes, interprets, or defines it.

In this session, you’ll explore sound—not as information to decode, but as presence itself. There’s no music. No story. Just the rawness of what you hear when you stop filtering for meaning.

It’s not about doing it right. It’s about noticing the moment before you name, explain, or analyze. That quiet space—just before the mind grabs it—is where your awareness begins to shift.

Use this when:

• You want to feel how your mind filters sound — not just understand it intellectually

• You’re caught in mental noise and want to reconnect with raw presence

• You sense that you’ve been tuning the world out — and wonder what you’ve been missing

• You’re ready to hear what’s actually there, not just what you expect to hear
