The Reflective Veil

A two-bell creature floats folded inside an orbiting chamber, above a pale hazy planet.

The creature floats with nothing under it and keeps its shape from the center. Draw the belly in gently and feel the core hold the body upright. This is strength of body.

GJ 1214 b is a sub-Neptune about 2.7 times as wide as Earth that circles its red-dwarf star in about 1.6 days. Webb has measured the infrared glow of its hazy atmosphere.

Practice

Sit on a cushion, lift your feet, and balance for five breaths.
