Words That Look Back - Aversion - The Practice

Catch the First Moment

There’s a moment before your reaction that usually goes unseen.

One that often shapes more than we realize.

This practice is a chance to notice it.

The Practice

Today, watch for something very small.

A moment when something in you leans away.

You may not notice it at first.

But if you do…

pause for a second.

Stay with that first moment
before it becomes a thought
before it becomes a story.

Just long enough to see it.

You don’t need to do anything with what you see.
Just notice.
