Do not try to stop your thinking. Let it stop by itself. If something comes into your mind let it come in and let it go out. It will not stay long. When you try to stop your thinking, it means you are not bothered by it. Do not be bothered by anything . . . .
If you are not bothered by the waves gradually they will become calmer and calmer.
- Shunryu Suzudki
Get into the Flow
l. Set an intention. Try: I seek insight to see my objectives clearly.
2. Let go of tension. Inhale for an intake of five and lift shoulders to your ears. Exhale and release them down your back.
3. Take ten breaths with eyes closed. Find awareness in the sensation of breathing. If thoughts grab you, start over. Keep trying until you have taken ten consecutive breaths without distraction.
4. Return to your intention.
Notice what happens when in the flow.
