Mindfulness is commonly described as non-judgmental awareness. And yet, as we bring mindfulness to our experience, we develop into aware of how quick we’re to evaluate! It seems inconceivable to let go of labeling our likes and dislikes. In this non-judgment meditation script, we refrain from judging our judgments by practicing noting if and once they arise.

It’s a part of being human to label our experiences as nice or unpleasant, good or bad. In and of itself, there may be nothing flawed with this labeling. What creates suffering is our tendency to then attach to the nice, while suppressing or avoiding what we predict of as bad.

Non-judgmental noting might help us recognize after we apply judgments, but more importantly, how we react to those judgments. In this guided meditation on non-judging, we use noting to melt our reactivity. As we open to this moment, just because it is, we sense more ease and clarity.
