A palm-sized ceramic stone shaped for stillness.
Smooth, grounded, quietly tactile.

A barely carved Seljuk eight-point star rests on its surface;
not to be seen, but to be traced.

As the fingers move along its edges, the breath slows.
One corner at a time.

Eight points.
Eight breaths.

Designed not to guide you,
but to give your breath a place to return.
