Short sessions of natural awareness
Dzogchen practice is often described as 'short sessions, many times.' Rather than striving for long meditation periods, the emphasis is on frequent glimpses of natural awareness throughout the day.

Awareness in speech, interactions, and relationships
Dzogchen practice is not separate from daily life. Speech, interactions, and relationships are seen as natural fields for recognizing and embodying awareness.
Spontaneous presence in ordinary life
Dzogchen emphasizes that realization is not confined to meditation sessions or retreats. The essence of practice is recognizing spontaneous presence in the midst of daily, ordinary life.
