SELF-GUIDED PRACTICE
How to practice
- Find a window, doorway, or open view where you can see farther than arm's length.
- Sit or stand with the body supported and both feet connected to the ground.
- Let the eyes rest on a distant point such as sky, trees, buildings, horizon, or open space.
- Soften the focus so you are receiving the whole view rather than tracking details.
- Allow peripheral vision to widen and notice light, color, movement, and distance.
- Keep breathing naturally and relax the forehead, jaw, neck, and shoulders.
- If the mind starts analyzing the scene, return to the simple sense of looking and space.
- Stay for two to three minutes, then feel your feet and the room before moving on.
Stay comfortable. You can stop at any time or return to your natural breath.
