Just Sitting, Just Being

Just Sitting

Just Breathing

Just breathe naturally. Let the experience of being alive unfold with each breath.

Just Eating 3

Just chew a small amount of food slowly and swallow it for a purpose greater than just satisfying your hunger. Leave your eating utensils on the plate or bowl while chewing. Savor one breath before taking the next bite.

Just Drinking

Just take a slow sip of water or tea. Let the full experience of drinking unfold naturally. Savor one breath before taking another sip.

Just Standing

Just stand tall and relaxed with a straight spine and slightly bent knees. This is to allow your body to breathe naturally with the abdomen and your mind to rest in the experience of breathing.
