Re: Impregnating Breath

Hello Martin,

I like the way you've conceived of the exercise; I'm coming more to a 
similar way of thinking. I think that I have been trying to force it 
too much, and have ended up fighting myself in a lot of ways. I am 
finding that it is easier to focus on sensing the wish as if it were 
already present in the air/food, awaiting my attention, which is 
similar to what you said.

As for my resistance: I'm thinking that it was more the way I was 
approaching the exercise than any deeper resistance that caused me to 
short-circuit my own efforts. I was wishing for openness or peace, 
but my efforts, due to the way I thought the exercise was supposed to 
be done, were causing me strain and tension. So I needed to find a 
better way to experience it.

Thanks for sharing, you helped me crystallize my own thoughts.

David
