The idea behind this card — The present moment
You don't have to face the whole of this. Ten minutes is a real unit of time. The present moment is the only place life has ever happened.
GROUND — The sacred ordinary — the body and the day as holy ground
…people sat with this card this month

The practice
set a timer for ten minutes and choose one tiny task — tea, one dish, sitting by the window. When it rings, decide the next ten. Nothing beyond the timer is your business right now.
Where this idea comes from
- Jean-Pierre de Caussade — the sacrament of the present moment
- Contemplative traditions across faiths
