|Nutshell=explores different ways to use Sounds as part of your meditative practices. Typically sounds are used in [[Attention|Mindfulness]] practices as a way of bringing attention to {{Credo|Attention}}. When you notice in your thoughts any illusionary "sounds" such as earworms or monologues, or any thought that feels as if it's spoken in your head, simply bring your attention to any actual sounds in the moment, and those illusionary sounds evaporate immediately. Another way sounds are used is to demonstrate [[Adaptation|Impermanence]], as sounds rarely hold onto the same qualities for very long at all. So many objects we see or feel will appear quite permanent at the time but sounds typically change and dissipate continually. | |||

* Pay attention to a sound without thinking for a second about what the sound is from or for. Notice the shape, color, and feel of the sound, but never the what, or the why. Feel free to shift attention to a new sound if it seems right to do so. | * Pay attention to a sound without thinking for a second about what the sound is from or for.
