Focus on your breath.
Try not to control it.
Recognize how the air flows through your nostril and throat.
How the air fills up your lungs and your belly and chest raise.

Watch how the air flows out of your lungs, how your belly and chest move.
And the short moment before the next inhalation starts.
Practice open awareness.
Just observe what is currently there.
Any thoughts or body sensations raising up?
What do you see, smell or feel?
Focus on this moment.
Do not look back, do not look forward.
Just this moment.
The only place for existence.
Watch your thoughts.
Just recognize them.
Try not evaluate them.
Just observe.
If there are too many – try to focus on the space in which they appear.
This space is pure and perfect and persistent.
What do you feel right now?
Try not to judge.
Try not to comment them.
Just observe.
