What is Ping Practice?

What is Ping Practice?

When we originally started this writing over six months ago, we described Ping Practice as:

This all remains true —

Ping Practice is an evolving journaling methodology and app. Its basis are pings.¹

---

Circling back to Ping Practice now, we’d like to offer an additional frame…

Ping Practice is a series of invitations:

We call these “invitations” because doing so reminds us of the posture we maintain: offering Ping Practice openly and without expectation, as something to try out and evaluate for oneself what’s useful.

Taken together, these invitations are about “repatterning” — expanding the ways we respond to what we feel and engage with the wider world and the beings we share it with.

---

Ping Practice takes seriously the fact that no two journeys through this practice look the same —

As such, the methodology and app are not fixed. Rather, they are scaffolding: starting structures to support you in discovering what moves you to live these invitations and ultimately, thrive in the uncertainty of an open, ongoing, and creative existence.

This project, and the exploration it invites, is at once personal and communal.

If you would like to be made aware when we are hosting a conversation with people experimenting with Ping Practice, please be in touch.

We quite like the form Viktor Frankl (source not known) brought to the space Ping Practice is meant to help you develop the capacity for creating:

Between stimulus and response lies a space. In that space lie our freedom and power to choose a response. In our response lies our growth and our happiness.
