24-hour Tao Practice – 1
Whole day do not talk to any body and even to yourself! No reading, no TV, no music.
Get up before the sun rise!
Wear very comfortable clothes and shoes. Eat very little rice (no salt-no oil, just plain rice).
Go to a park (no cell phone, no computer, no watch, no perfume, no bike, no roller blades etc).
Feed the animals! Touch the plants and talk to them. Look at the sky. Clouds. Plants. Animals... Feel how they smell. Give a hug a tree. Walk around.
Stay at the park for 5-6 hours and even more.
When you get back home, don't touch the electronic stuff.
Eat only very little rice and drink only water (no painted beverages).
Light a candle. Sit. Just sit. Don't try to do meditation. Try to just sit or lay on the floor. If you have children or pets play with them for a while.
When you feel you're ready, go to the bed early.
This is a true Taoist practice. Trust me.
