The Patience of a Pulse

A warrior sits cross-legged under a nearly black sky with one small point of light.

Seated with folded legs, the warrior counts each breath. The count stays the same, in and out, like a steady beat. Stillness of mind grows from that even rhythm.

PSR B1257+12 c orbits a pulsar, a fast-spinning neutron star. The planet was found because its pull shifts the arrival times of the pulsar's radio pulses.

Practice

Breathe in for four counts and out for four, for two minutes.
