An 11-chapter guided workbook on the Fourfold Axis: Body, Breath, Attention, Space. Read each chapter or listen to it in a natural voice. For ADHD and autism.
The body is the undeniable ground of the present moment. You learn to perceive gravity, your posture and your contact with space, as the starting point of every practice.
The breath connects you with the rhythm of life and teaches the acceptance of impermanence. Every inhale and exhale is a small rehearsal of beginning and ending.
Attention is the lens of the mind: it can focus, open, scatter or get stuck. You learn to recognise where it is and to bring it back gently, without self-criticism.
The first three centres were something you do. Space is something that already exists. Here you get to know awareness, the open field in which experience happens, and you learn to rest in it.
The neurodivergent mind is not broken; it works differently. You come to understand its two main states (racing and locking), the setting that lies beneath them, and the cost of the mask.
Why daily practice is called contact, and where a mind stands once it stops standing on its own constructions. Together with practical tools for noisy places, social moments, transitions, low-energy states and the spaces you live in.
When the distance between a decision and the act becomes an abyss: how to move through the body, without waiting to want it.
Two practical protocols, for intense anxiety and for overload, together with what comes before the wave, and what comes after.
A one-page sheet you can fill in. It is the short version of the practice, for inside the day. The full, seated version is Chapter 10; the version for inside the wave is the Pocket Card (Ch. 8).
The full, sequential exercise of the Fourfold Axis, for a quiet moment. It works best in a quiet position, but the steps can be applied at any moment. The short version for inside the day is the Worksheet (Ch. 9); the version for inside the wave is the Pocket Card (Ch. 8).
The "how" (neuroscience) and the "why" (contemplative tradition) behind the "what" of the exercises. Optional for the practice, useful for trust.
