One more time...
Group: Author: Nathalie | Posted: 2026-05-09
I wonder about the use of ‘one more time’ vs ‘again’ one more time to me implies for the last time, my brain feels a betrayal when it realizes it’s not the last time and we have to do it again. Betrayal is very strong word, but to illustrate.

Section titled “Reply by Patrick — 2026-05-09”That’s a precise observation about what cueing language does. “One more time” carries a completion signal that “again” doesn’t, and when the movement continues past it, the brain has to reorient.
In the Primer lessons, the intention is that “one more time” means exactly one more complete repetition. If you’ve found otherwise in a specific lesson, let us know which one and we’ll take a look. When you flag something like this, it helps a great deal if you can include the exact timestamp in the video, the minutes and seconds of the moment you’re referring to. The more specific the reference, the better we can address it.
The observation connects to a broader aspect of the practice: when a cue signals that the end is near, part of the attention begins organizing around what comes next rather than what’s happening in the current repetition. That’s the same kind of attention split that comes up whenever something new activates: one area draws focus while another fades. Holding full attention on the present repetition, regardless of what you’ve just been told about the count, is something the practice works toward.
One more ask about tagging: we know it’s faster to drop a question in without stopping to add tags, and we don’t want that to hold back your posts. But the tags are what make the forum searchable over time, including via the platform’s search. The screenshot below shows where the tag field is on the lesson page, right below the content area before you hit Post. Please consider making it a habit each time you post.

Section titled “Reply by Nathalie — 2026-05-11”Hello, I thought if stop the video and I click on Discussion it would tag it automatically with the TimeStamp. Now I realize it’s a shortcut to generic discussion. Assumptions…I’ll go back to find it, it’s in Section 7. Thanks, Nathalie
