Что важно понять
Simple moments for an opening, transition, or closing bell.
A bell can create clear boundaries for a practice session: an opening, a transition, or a close. These small boundaries help the mind know when to begin and when it can release what it was doing.
Как практиковать
Use one bell before sitting, another in the middle if you move from chanting to silence, and one at the end. Between bells, leave a few breaths for listening.
Начните с малого, выберите подходящий темп и позвольте себе вернуться завтра.
- Выберите короткое время, например пять минут.
- Замедляйтесь, когда нужно, и замечайте происходящее.
- Завершите ударом колокола или одним осознанным вдохом.
Полезное напоминание
You do not need many bells for a meaningful session. One consistent signal is often enough.

What if I only have a little time today?

Do I need to do it perfectly?
