 Warm Heart, Clear Mind
It’s as if everyone who has ever been born has the same birthright, which is enormous potential of warm heart and clear mind.

 Dear Mother, wherever there is soil, water, rock or air, you are there, nourishing me and giving me life. You are present in every cell of my body… You are more than just my environment. You are nothing less than myself…I promise to be aware that your health and well-being is my own health and well-being. I know I need to keep this awareness alive in me for us both to be peaceful, happy, healthy, and strong.

 “From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: that we are here for the sake of each other– above all for those upon whose smile and well-being our own happiness depends, and also for the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by a bond of sympathy. Many times a day I realize how much my own outer and inner life is built upon the labors of my fellow men, both living and dead, and how earnestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received.”

 Our Fundamental Goodness
I’ve found that pointing people to their fundamental goodness will awaken it. It’s more skillful than pointing to the negative. We are so loyal to our suffering and to seeing ourselves as damaged that it’s very easy to use spiritual practice to reinforce our self-judgment. That doesn’t help people become liberated. – Jack Kornfield, “The Wise Heart” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 A Culinary Delightg
With cooking, you can use your awareness to inhabit physical movements that may be new . . . until, with practice, there is an invigorating flow of energy in those physical experiences, a delight. Such energy, focus, and wholehearted attention nourishes yourself and those you feed. – Laura Fraser, “The Joy of Mindful Cooking” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 Wisdom Will Resurface
Wisdom does accumulate–not in a linear arithmetic progression but in a complex, dynamic system. Each understanding sheds light upon the others in an interactive living process. Insights that seem unassailable may suddenly meet passionate doubt, all clarity shattered at the very moment it is most needed. Then, just as suddenly, wisdom will resurface, stronger for having vanished, wisdom that now knows of its own disintegration. – Nina Wise, “Sudden Awakening” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |
