The first lesson I've learned is that no matter what you do in your life, you have to figure out your own internal rhythms - I mean, what works for you doesn't necessarily work for your friend. ↗

If you do a practice and train your attention to hover in the present, then you will build the internal capacity to do that as needed - at will and voluntarily. ↗
