A participant new to meditation.
Broke up the session to two halves for the newcomer. The first segment seemed slightly longer than the second segment.
I realize BAM is not easily accessible to certain individuals. The ability to follow the simple instruction of having the mind “wait” just long enough for the body to take the next “natural” breath can at first seem impossible for some individuals. It is also difficult for those who have little trouble with BAM to appreciate how difficult it is for those who can’t. It would be like describing colors to a person blind from birth.
