I have a string of meditation beads, 108 beads long.
Oh, that’s a good idea. I’ve been wanting an excuse to make something like that for a while. But it does seem to contradict the keeping-still-ness.
What I do is curl fingers.
Count to 10 and back, curl 1 finger. When all 10 are curled, I begin uncurling. A full curl-uncurl cycle takes about 25 minutes for me, and is a good substitute for an alarm, I think. Little less stressful & abrupt at the end.
I guess I have the same question—how does this interact with the priority of keeping still?
I’m not sure. I’m very much new to it. I don’t seem to notice any major difference between when I use an alarm and the finger curling.
