A More Complete Attention
On trains, in the street, in our homes and communities, we practice paying attention–through developing mindfulness and lovingkindness and through letting go of projections–partly because a more complete attention proffers many special gifts. These gifts can penetrate through the exigencies of social roles, the seeming hollowness of chance encounters, and even through terrible hurt. – Sharon Salzberg, “A More Complete Attention” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

Don’t Strive for Escape
The world of worries we wish to escape from in the beginning of Buddhist practice is found to be enlightenment itself in the end. We don’t understand this, of course, and so we keep striving for a distant, idealized kind of Buddhahood, only to reach its threshold and be turned back the way we came. – Clark Strand, “Worry Beads” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

What Do I See?
