Total Duration

20–30 minutes

  • Environment: quiet, seated, uninterrupted

  • Posture: upright, stable

  • Eyes: gently closed

Step-by-Step Execution

Step 1 — Physical Setup (2 minutes)

Sit upright.
Spine vertical.
Jaw relaxed.
Shoulders neutral.

Do not adjust posture after starting.

Step 2 — Sound Initiation (3 minutes)

Begin producing a soft, continuous vocal sound.

Recommended options:

  • “Aaa”

  • “Mmm”

  • “Om” (phonetic only, no symbolism)

Volume:

  • low

  • steady

  • non-forceful

Breathing remains natural.

Step 3 — Sound–Attention Coupling (10–15 minutes)

While producing the sound:

  • Place attention on the sound itself

  • Not on meaning

  • Not on vibration

  • Not on breath

Rule:

When attention drifts, continue the sound without correction.

Do not stop the sound to regain focus.
Sound continuity is the stabilizer.

Step 4 — Silent Residue Phase (3–5 minutes)

Stop the sound.

Remain seated.
Do not replace it with another focus.

Observe:

  • residual mental activity

  • changes in attention movement

No adjustment.

Step 5 — Closure (2–3 minutes)

Open eyes slowly.
Remain seated briefly.

Do not evaluate performance.
Do not journal today.
