I picked up this method of from Osho and Gurdjieff also used it.

.....I find this method creates a gap in the thoughts. Rest in the frozen position for a short-while and then slowly resume your activity.

Another similar method is the one of deautomization. In other words, doing actions very slowly and deliberately. You take actions off of auto-pilot. As you slow down, you start to see the thoughts because they are moving at a pace that is faster than you are now going. So they stand out and you begin to witness them. Then they lose a lot of momentum.

Thanks Brock

It is surprising how important it is.... That gap between our thoughts. There is a lot that can manifest in those gaps. I know I have experienced it in meditation and hope to get back into that moment of timelessness and bliss. This deautomization or getting off auto-pilot is a very Buddhist notion; like walking meditation between setting in meditation.

Freeze your body right where you stand! I'll try it!
