Technologies of the self, No. 1

The work of our hands is a technology, a gift of the self to the self. Extend the arm and splay the fingers. As the fingers relax bring the fingertips to rest just under the sternum. Let your hands rest there a while. Now in an extremely gently pulse, on-off, on-off, let the fingers turn upward while still in place. Note your breathing and be ready for change. A Technology of the Self.
