HAIETMOBA revisited(?)

I'm obviously really sorry to dredge up the ghost of AF on here, and I haven't really been on the DhO for quite a while.....
But I've been asking myself 'How Am I Experiencing This Moment of Being Alive' quite a lot in the last few days whilst trying to recover from a COVID-induced near-nervous breakdown.
And it just seems to work so well in bringing one into the present, whilst also highlighting the feeling-tone of present moment. Far better than other forms of self-inquiry such as 'who am I', 'where am I' or 'Am I aware of being aware'......
I obviously don't want to get into massive fights about PCEs etc - but I just wondered if anyone else uses this pointer?
I realise it was thought that this wasn't actually the AF practice but I just wondered if anyone has used this to try and progress on the Buddhist path?

Hi Robin,
Sorry to hear about your post-COVID problems. It sounds very unpleasant.
Anything which works to point you towards the present moment is good. When it's working great, and when it's not there is HAINETMOBA - How Am I Not Experiencing This Moment of Being Alive?![emoticon](https://www.dharmaoverground.org/o/classic-theme/images/emoticons/smile.gif)
Best wishes for your health and wellbeing,
George
