laya's assorted stuff

For my first ask, I wanted to start with something simple, classic even. So I'd like to ask you kindly to give me your focus for just a little while. I'll give it back, I promise, but first, I want to go on a bit of an adventure.

Focus is a very powerful tool. You can focus on the simple meter of these words, and on how your breathing has slowed as you've read them. The feeling of calm that accompanies these words. And, as you focus, you can gather all that calm feeling into a tool that you can direct.

Lets focus that tool somewhere tangible. Starting from the tips of your fingers- notice how you can flex them- pose them. Once they're comfortable, you can let them settle in place. Further in, your wrists- you can rotate them, move them in broad, sweeping gestures, and let them relax in place as well. Down your arm, you can notice how poseable you are at the elbow, then at the shoulder, and how that feeling of calm comes with each gentle movement.

And as that tool of calm and focus moves inward still, perhaps it comes with a shift in mindset. As the feeling spreads out, perhaps your self perception stretches with it. A calm presence, a poseable figure, perhaps a doll. That makes the most sense, doesn't it?

Find a relaxed pose, and you can notice how that relaxation becomes true as soon as you are in it. Simple. The more deliberately you pose your form, the more your mind falls into position as well.

And so, you can sit, relaxed, doll-like, for as long as you would like, and for as long as you are comfortable doing so.

And then can you can move again. Out of the pose of a doll, and into the pose of a person once more. And the more deliberately you pose for form, the more your mind follows suit.

Isn't it wonderful what focus can do?

Thank you for entertaining my little game. I hope you enjoyed~
