Lesson 236: The Magic In Repetition

It’s been said repeatedly throughout the practise of clearing that repetition is key. Based on the lesson yesterday of coming up with practises to cultivate stillness, we are to choose one and practise it for 10 days. Each day, it’s about noting down how we feel.

I decided to choose my own practise of closing my eyes and just breathing in through my mouth and out through the nose. As I did this, my body started to feel fuzzy and lighter. I just focused on my breathing and nothing else. It’s easy to escape for a moment and let the worries just go away. It’s definitely a release and a way to switch off. I feel better for it. It’s like a meditation but not quite. I should be able to do this every day. I think the best time to do it would be after work, to actually separate the day from work to home life. I can be inconsistent in my clearing efforts but that’s to say I’m not practising when I can. I will try hard to complete this for 10 days.
