Frequently Asked Questions
I can't just "be" in the moment; I'm always thinking about what could happen. Why?
The world is being "Felt as Potential." Threat saturation turns your environment into a map of "Possibilities" (mostly negative) rather than a place of "Presence." In the Meaning Density Model™, your Reward & Threat systems are so dominant that they have overridden your Identity system. You are living in a "Future Density" that makes the "Current Reality" feel thin and unimportant.
How do I trade "potential" for "presence"?
Engage in "High-Density Sensory Contact." Focus intensely on the weight of your feet, the taste of your food, or the temperature of the air. These "Present-Moment Facts" have a "Meaning Density" that potential futures cannot match. By flooding your Integrator with current data, you crowd out the "Future-Simulations." DojoWell teaches that presence is a "Somatic Choice"—you choose the "Real" over the "Possible" one sensation at a time.
