PRACTICES FOR EVERYONE

 
 

Doorway Practice

These are practices of attention - mindfulness and alertness - and cultivate awareness. It may be surprising how difficult these simple practices can be; the difficulty is remembering to catch yourself at the doorway.

  • Pick a foot, either foot, and for one week every time you enter through a door or gate or any threshold, let that foot be the first to cross over.
  • At least once a day, recognize a doorway you are passing through. Stop at the threshold, let go of whatever thoughts or emotions that may be occupying your mind, and open your senses (seeing, hearing, feeling, smelling and tasting) to the space you are entering. Open fully to the space you are entering, then cross the threshold.
  • When you are passing through a doorway or crossing a threshold, envision the Spiritual Sun in your heart as you enter in, bearing blessings and light into that space. Be a Light-bearer to every place you enter or pass through!
