WORD PRACTICE — LETTING A WORD WORK
Some of the work in this space happens through repetition rather than analysis.
Occasionally, a word or phrase stays with you without explanation.
Instead of trying to interpret it, you can let it sit and allow meaning to unfold over time.
Practice:
Choose one word.
Write it somewhere visible.
Once a day, let your eyes rest on it briefly.
No journaling.
No effort to define it.
No forcing meaning.
Then continue with your day.
Understanding often arrives when the system has enough steadiness to hold it.
My word this past week was linger.
I touched eyes to it once a day and left it alone.
It took about a week before my body defined what it meant.
If you try this, you don’t need to explain your word here.
You’re welcome to simply note:
• your word
• or “working”
This is one of the foundational pacing practices used throughout the course.
