 “A tiny bud of a smile on your lips nourishes awareness and calms you. It returns you to the peace you had lost. A smile is the most basic kind of peace work.”

Mini Mindfulness Break for April 28, 2020
 “In the beginning, meditative awareness is like a small flame, which can easily be extinguished and needs to be protected and nurtured. Later, it is more like a huge bonfire, which consumes whatever falls into it. Then, the more thoughts that arise, the more awareness blazes up, like adding logs to an ever-growing fire. Emaho—Everything within us and around us, absolutely everything, then becomes the fuel for enlightened awareness!”

Mini Mindfulness Break for April 20, 2020
 Atisha says: In the morning remember it is a new day, a new beginning. And have a decision deep in your heart that “Today I am not going to waste this opportunity. Enough is enough! Today I am going to be aware, today I am going to be alert, today I am going to devote as much energy as possible to the single cause, the cause of meditation. I will meditate in all my acts. I will do all the activities, the usual day-to-day activities, but today with a new quality: I will bring the quality of awareness to them.”

Mini Mindfulness Break for April 10, 2020
 Each act is a rite, a ceremony. Raising your cup of tea to your mouth is a rite. Does the word “rite” seem too solemn? I use that word in order to jolt you into the realization of the life-and-death matter of awareness.

 Run the Way You Sit
We experience the gradual awakening to pure awareness that develops over the days, months, and years as we sit. When it comes to exercise, the principle is the same. We let the mind and body go on their own run, noting but not minding at all. – Michael Hoffman, “Mind on the Run” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 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.
