Overview of sections
"Sections" are minor divisions within chapters. Usually, they are not listed in the Table of Contents (but sometimes they are). Usually, they begin with a centered heading that is surrounded by additional white space. However, sometimes there's no separate heading, but an in-line heading following white space; and sometimes not even that. These variations can make it difficult to distinguish between a new Section and a Thought Break. Precede a Section or a sub-section with two blank lines unless the Project Comments specify otherwise, or ASK about sub-sections if they're not in the Comments. If the section has a heading (most do), follow that heading with one blank line.

In this example, "Memory" is a classic example of a new Section: extra white space around a centered heading.
