n-presence-practice

# Naval Presence Practice

## Purpose

Reduce rumination and anticipation by returning attention to present reality.

## Read First

- `references/concept.md`

Read only the files needed for the current request.
All runtime references are local to this skill so the folder can be copied independently.

## Workflow

1. Identify the trigger, thought direction, body signal, and behavioral cost.
2. Choose one anchor that can be used safely in the actual setting.
3. Design a ninety-second notice-label-return sequence.
4. Attach it to a trigger and track returns rather than uninterrupted calm.

## Output

Return these checkable fields:

- Attention pattern
- Chosen anchor
- Practice script
- Trigger
- Return count

## Boundaries

Use n-meditation-system for a sustained protocol and n-present-moment for choosing immediate action on inspiration.

Paraphrase by default and do not reproduce long passages from the book.
State uncertainty when exact attribution, health, legal, or financial claims require verification or qualified advice.

## Example

User: "Help me return to the present."

Assistant: Use the workflow above and return attention pattern, chosen anchor, practice script.
