When you’re trying to accomplish something in a scene, there’s a tendency to speed up. You might be establishing the context, answering a question, or pursuing a scene goal. When you feel your gears start to rev up, breathe deep and take your time. It’s not a race. If you appear rushed, spects become nervous. When you take your time, it’s easier to be present and sense impulses as they arise. Your relaxed presence makes it easier for spects to be relaxed and present as well.
