+The idea here is to just practice basic [[Attention]] and [[Presence]] during something you do every day.
-{{#set:
+* Pick up your toothbrush and squeeze a strip of toothpaste onto it.
-|Beacons=Attention
+* Turn on the tap and wet the brush, your daily dental hygiene routine is now a mindfulness exercise.
-|Lenses=Presence
+* As you start brushing, pay attention to where your thoughts wander off.
-|Realms=Seeking
+* Are you thinking about your meetings? Your grocery list? Or maybe an argument from last night?
+* Each time you catch your mind straying, gently guide it back to the sensation of brushing.
+* Focus on the taste of the toothpaste, the feel of the bristles against your teeth and gums, the sound of brushing.
+* Once you're done brushing, rinse your mouth and your brush.
+* Clean up your space, put everything back where it belongs, and stand still for a moment, taking in the quiet.
+* Use this small window of time twice a day to practice focusing and reigning in your wandering mind.
