How to practice

In week 1, practice five minutes daily; week 2, add one quiet minute; week 3, choose a fixed cue; week 4, keep the version that fits best. At each week’s end, write what made starting easier or harder.

A helpful reminder

If you fall behind, continue from the current day. Do not let counting days matter more than being present.
