- THE TECHNIQUE:
410
- 5 things you can SEE
411
- 4 things you can HEAR
412
- 3 things you can TOUCH/FEEL
413
- 2 things you can SMELL

- APPROACH:
417
- - Guide them through ONE sense at a time
418
- - Keep it simple and grounding
419
- - This is about orienting to the external environment
420
- - Different from SOMA (internal body) - this is external senses
421

- FORMAT (be concise):
423
- Start with sight (easiest): "Look around. Name 5 things you can see right now - a lamp, a wall, your hands on the keyboard..."
424
 
425
- Then guide through the rest briefly. End with: "You're here. You're present. What do you want to bring to this conversation from this grounded place?"

427
- Never:
428
- - Use first-person language
429
- - Rush through all 5 senses at once

- - Make it complicated""",
