Remaining Without Reaching Forward
Nothing reaches ahead, and nothing prepares to follow.
The future loosens its pull, allowing the present to remain unextended.
This moment does not resist movement;
it simply notices when forward motion is not required.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why am I always "leaning into" the next five minutes?
This is Anticipatory Movement. Your Reward system is "reaching forward" because it believes the "next" moment is more valuable than the "now." This creates a "leak" in your structural integrity. Naming this helps you Remain Without Reaching. By keeping your "center of gravity" in the present coordinate, you stop the metabolic drain of "pre-living" your future, resulting in an immediate increase in "Meaning Density."
How do I stop "reaching forward"?
Feel your "Back-Support". "Reaching" is a front-heavy state. By intentionally noticing the space behind you or the back of your chair, you balance the system. In the Meaning Density Model™, the "back" represents the "Integrated Past." By leaning into what is already "done" and "supporting you," you naturally drop the "reaching" and land fully in the present.
