Walking across a field we are focused on at this time now, Judd.
 
We are focusing on the act of walking across a field.
 
We will focus our attention on this gesture of walking.
 
We will act in the manner of moving our legs forward.
 
We will press our heels to the grass while we are in the process of movement and we will extend our toes forward.
 
We will bend our knees as the soles of our feet press against the grass.
 
As our knees bend we will lift our opposite foot at the heel and we will push our bent leg forward across space.
 
Our opposite leg will exist in space, bent at a ninety-degree angle, until it drops and our heel touches the grass first followed by the soles of our feet and lastly followed by our toes.
 
At which point the heel of our opposite foot will lift and it will shift our point of balance.
 
We will lift that heel and bend our legs.
 
As we lift our opposite leg at a ninety-degree angle so that the top surfaces of our thighs are parallel to both the sky and the ground, we will shift our point of balance from the vertical and closer to a horizontal.
 
We will shift our point of balance forward until our feet become pressed to the ground.
