When we are hijacked by fear or any other adverse emotion, it can be really hard to remember the way home to the present moment as our executive functioning goes offline—hijacked by the survival brain.
This is when a practice like RAIN can assist, as RAIN is an acronym for Recognize, Allow, Investigate, Nurture.

Having RAIN in our tool kit when our executive functioning isn’t entirely online gives us a structure we can walk through to bring a much more integrated brain back online and give us more access to our heart and awareness.

In this meditation, we look back at that which is observing the many aspects of the breath and body to discover the presence of awareness itself.
