Try a moment of practice.
For one minute, place your palm on your chest.
As you breathe, imagine the space beneath your hand softening by just one percent.
A question to sit with
What did you notice beneath your hand? Did anything change, or stay much the same?
Notice what is there, even if nothing changes. In True Essence, you can write about it privately and invite a response from the Sage if you wish.
A note from James.
I created True Essence from more than three decades of practice in Tai Chi, breath and presence. It brings that experience into small practices you can return to in everyday life.
