When a reaction arises, three things can happen. In this Gurdjieff-based Fourth Way episode, we explore the third. Non-expression holds the impulse fully within awareness, neither acted out nor suppressed, and in that held interval something changes that expression and suppression cannot touch.

Drawing on the teachings of G. I. Gurdjieff and P. D.

The Friction Observation practice makes this immediately applicable in ordinary daily life.
