The Body's Quiet Symmetry

Sit upright with the back easy. Place attention on the left arm and the right arm at the same time, not switching between them, but holding both in awareness together. Notice how naturally they mirror each other. Expand to both legs at once. Then both sides of the chest. Then the whole body felt as a single, balanced figure. Most of the day the mind treats the body as one busy machine. Today, let the body be a calm pair of wings, evenly held, breathing as one.
