Key ideas in Finding Your Calm
- The goal is noticing thoughts, not stopping them
- Success is the moment of awareness, not the absence of thought
- Awareness is a shift in perspective, not a thought-blocker
- You can be aware of a thought while it is still present
- Meditation provides relief from the 'command' of impulses
- Wandering is a natural part of the process
- The difference between thinking and being aware of thinking
- The payoff is the space between an impulse and an action
- The cycle of a successful meditation session
- The 'rep' or 'win' happens at the moment of noticing
- The immediate payoff of noticing impulses
- Short sessions lower the 'barrier to entry' and prevent overwhelm
- Noticing you are distracted is a sign of success
- Three minutes is enough time to experience the cycle of wandering and noticing
- Feeling restless but staying seated is a sign of success
- Signs of 'doing it right' during the first session

Tomo gives Finding Your Calm the Duolingo treatment: levels, streaks, and quick quizzes that test what you just learned. That game loop is what the tabs above never had, so it's the one you actually finish.
