Weaving the Yoga Sutra: Sensitivity and feedback
Are you noticing changes in your sensitivity?
Do you play internal games to override the common sense feedback you receive? Which do you trust more, the feedback sensitivity loop or your inner tendencies? What happens when you follow your sensitivity? What happens when you follow your tendencies? Do you recognize any of these tendencies in yourself? What are the tendencies you recognize in the society in which you live?

Weaving the Yoga Sutra: Distractions
The most important skill to cultivate
Distractions will happen, sooner or later, either a few times or countless times. Even when we get distracted , noticing that we got distracted indicates that we are present and that we are aware that our attention moved away from our intended focal point. What is important is to keep returning to our focus, to this moment. And, returning without struggle, effort, or self-judgment and with a gentle smile.

Weaving the Yoga Sutra: Range of Awareness - Open awareness
Open Awareness is the experience of being open to whatever each moment brings
Would it be useful to grow in our ability to modulate our awareness so that we can choose to focus on an idea or object or just be in open awareness? 
What happens if you try this exercise several times? What do you notice?

Weaving the Yoga Sutra: Range of awareness - Concentration
What does it feel like when our mind focuses on just one thing?
Exploring the range of awareness by focusing our mind on a single object of concentration. When we try to concentrate on a single thing, most of us find that our minds are easily distracted. This exercise strengthens our ability to concentrate. This ability only becomes stronger if we keep returning to our chosen focus. What would happen if you tried this practice for a few days? What would you notice? Would it become easier to focus?

Weaving the Yoga Sutra: Rango foawareness and experiences
What happens when you explore your Range of Awareness?
Most of us find that developing our sensitivity to natural processes enriches our experiences. in yoga, we try to expand our awareness so that we can participate in our lives consciously and intentionally. We experience the world through our senses, and our mind makes sense of the sensory information it receives by using its archive of knowledge, misconceptions, imagination, memories, and dreams. Applying the idea of Range of Awareness to our yoga practice enriches every aspect of our yoga practice while teaching us that awareness is the foundation of our existence.

Weaving the Yoga Sutra: Complaining
Do you ever complain? What do you complain about?
Is it possible to modulate your complaining? Are our complaints a way to release a build-up of tension and irritation? Or is our complaining an expression of frustration because our expectations do not match the situation we find ourselves in? The first path is a very practical way of turning complaints into action. The second way to act is to see if our complaints are enabling us to improve the quality of our contribution to the moment we are in. Imagine what would happen if all complaints were turned into uplifting actions…
