New Exercises

How can I do subtle Work? Is Subtle work like the Buddhist mindful meditations? To just keep watching all that is happening?
Let me try this process for a month and try:

1. To watch the belly rise and fall with breathing. To sense the breathing in a continuity but try being 'there' at the turning point.

2. To watch transitions of sensations in the body when moving from one posture to another -even opening the eyes post a sitting.
3. To fully experience the sensations in the body while eating.
4. To experience the sensation before speaking.
5. Watch the sensation while walking.

I will now document this as a log every day

I need to renew my vow of truthfullness. I am diluting this already within a few weeks.

November 11th:

My first log today Nov 11th

1. The new direction for my work is to keep an inner attention always. Especially when I am on the phone as well as speaking to people. Today so far (3:30 pm) I have been unsuccessful.
