Day 021 [ 00d, 11h, 48m; 021 consecutive days ] Part 2

I sat again tonight for a little over fifty minutes.  I did mindfulness of the body instead of mindfulness of the breath I've been doing mostly up until now.  It's what I was taught while on retreat.  This is probably going to become my main focus for the time being.  I wanted to work up to because the way I prefer to do it is fairly slow.  That way it requires quite a bit of concentration and mindfulness.  I was worried that I'd notice very little sensation, other than where there were places of gross contact or pain.  The first few times I did this I could barely notice anything at all, other than the least subtle sensations.  Its a bit of a relief that the previous work didn't completely dissapate.  I still have trouble distinguishing toes and fingers from the entire bunch.
