Dentist
Situations that brings up intensity are often helpful to me for noticing what is - for just allowing it all to unfold within space, as it does anyway. At the dentist yesterday, I had a good opportunity to explore everything unfolding - the room, the dentist, the drill, this body, the reactions in this body, sensations coming and going, emotions coming and going, thoughts coming and going, attention moving around, and the awareness it all unfolds within - and see that there is really no "I" anywhere in all of this. It all unfolds, but none of it is really that personal.
