Forty-five minutes, seven gates

The gentlest transmission we run, and the best first one: seven short gates of attention practised at dawn in the moss garden.

  • Gate 1–2

    Breath at the nostril, then the whole body breathing.

  • Gate 3–5

    Sound, sensation and the space between thoughts.

  • Gate 6–7

    Open awareness and the return to ordinary seeing.

If you have never sat before, start here. If you have sat for decades, start here too.

Attention trace

A private note of where your attention steadied and where it slipped, written in plain language.
