The One-Minute Attention Practice

Pick a thing that is already there: breath at the nostril, the weight of the cup, a sound in the street. Stay. When you leave, come back. When the minute ends, stop. Do not add a second minute as a moral victory.

Why so small

Because a practice you will not do is an ornament. Because attention is a currency and most of us are overdrawn. Because the spiritual productivity cult will try to turn this into an hour and then into shame.

A minute you did is larger than an hour you advertised.

If the object is a Name, you are already in the Sound room. If it is the body, stay here. The fetch is the same.
