Your Practice

The Practice of Being Here

Set this down for a moment — whatever you were carrying in your mind before you opened this. It can wait ten minutes

The Open Hand Practice

Place your hands open in your lap — palms up, fingers loose. Feel the warmth that lives in the center of each palm

Here, Now, Entirely

Begin by letting your hands settle on your thighs. Not arranging yourself

Say It Until You Feel It

via Florence Scovel Shinn

Place both hands flat on your thighs. Feel the weight of them — real, warm, present

The Liberation Practice: Completing What Has Already Begun

Sit somewhere you won't be interrupted. A chair, the floor, wherever your back can be long and your hands can rest easy

The Stillness That Sees

Set a timer for ten minutes. Sit where you are

The Radiance Practice

Find a comfortable seat and let your hands rest in your lap. Close your eyes, or let your gaze soften toward the floor

The Feeling That Comes First

via Joe Dispenza

Put your hands flat on whatever surface is beneath you right now. Feel the temperature, the texture, the slight give or resistance

The Only Place You Can Actually Be

Put your feet flat on the floor. Feel the weight of your body in the chair — the pressure of the seat beneath your thighs, the contact between your back and whatever is holding you

The Practice of Staying

Tomorrow is the longest day. The light has been building for six months, and it arrives at its fullness right now — not somewhere ahead, not after more effort

The One Who Listens

via Rumi

Find a comfortable seat. Let your spine settle upright without forcing it

What Morning Remembers

Find a seat — a chair, the floor, wherever you are right now. Let your spine be upright without being rigid
