Principle 2: Core Mechanism

Translating the body’s wisdom.

Commentary

The core mechanism of the practice — pointing to what is actually being done when a practitioner descends into S.E.W. (sensations, emotions, wants — see principle-3) and lets the body speak. Terse by intent or by placeholder; likely revised in team review.

Status notes

v3, ready for team review. Named in source Open Questions as load-bearing.

Source statement does NOT contain the word “presencing,” but the Open Questions explicitly flag “The word ‘presencing’ in Principle 2” as the team-pending word choice that propagates into the Practice and Carry the Message documents. Likely intent: revise this statement to carry “presencing” as the canonical name for the mechanism. Confirm or revise before propagating.
