A mantra for presence

Weaving the Yoga Sutra: A mantra for presence

Our words influence our thoughts and perspective.

What words do you use frequently? Are those words useful to be present or are they potential distractors?
What happens when we replace our tendencies to predict and worry with the mantra Let's see?

Sensitivity and feedback

Weaving the Yoga Sutra: Sensitivity and feedback

Are you noticing changes in your sensitivity?

Do you play internal games to override the common sense feedback you receive? Which do you trust more, the feedback sensitivity loop or your inner tendencies? What happens when you follow your sensitivity? What happens when you follow your tendencies? Do you recognize any of these tendencies in yourself? What are the tendencies you recognize in the society in which you live?

Distractions

Weaving the Yoga Sutra: Distractions

The most important skill to cultivate

Distractions will happen, sooner or later, either a few times or countless times. Even when we get distracted , noticing that we got distracted indicates that we are present and that we are aware that our attention moved away from our intended focal point. What is important is to keep returning to our focus, to this moment. And, returning without struggle, effort, or self-judgment and with a gentle smile.

Range of Awareness – Open awareness

Weaving the Yoga Sutra: Range of Awareness - Open awareness

Open Awareness is the experience of being open to whatever each moment brings

Would it be useful to grow in our ability to modulate our awareness so that we can choose to focus on an idea or object or just be in open awareness?
What happens if you try this exercise several times? What do you notice?
