Explanation:
Allocate an awareness point anywhere on your body - a finger tip, toe, hand, nose - anything that you find convenient. Then, during any daily activity such as talking, watching TV, working, playing etc., keep and hold continuous awreness on that point - remaining conscious of it at all times no matter what you are doing.
