| When Pain Happens to Us
We suffer because we marry our instinctive aversion to pain to the deep-seated belief that life should be free from pain. In resisting our pain by holding this belief, we strengthen just what we’re trying to avoid. When we make pain the enemy, we solidify it. This resistance is where our suffering begins. – Ezra Bayda, “When It Happens to Us” |

 At Home with Ourselves
Simply watching also allows us to stop struggling: to stop trying so hard to accomplish, to prove ourselves, to measure up–to cover over whatever sense of lack we might have. It may be frightening when we first stop struggling; we’ve become accustomed to this way of being, and feel anxious about leaving the comfort of the familiar. But when we stop the struggle, we then have the space to be at home with ourselves. – Ezra Bayda, “Reflect, Without Thinking” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 Pain is Our Teacher
While we may never prefer to have pain, it can nevertheless push us in ways we would not otherwise push ourselves–into a deeper and ultimately more appreciative experience of what it is to be genuinely alive. – Ezra Bayda, “More than This Body” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 Breaking Through
It’s imperative for us to understand that spiritual practice is not just something we do when we’re sitting in meditation or when we’re on retreat. Failing to see everything as an opportunity for practice is a setup for frustration and disappointment, keeping us stuck where we are and limiting our possibilities for inner growth. The more we include in our practice, the more satisfying our life can be. – Ezra Bayda, “Breaking Through” |

 Not about Comfort
A central component of spiritual life is recognizing that practice is not about ensuring that we feel secure or comfortable. It’s not that we won’t feel these things when we practice; rather, it’s that we are also bound to sometimes feel very uncomfortable and insecure, particularly when exploring and working with our darker emotions and unhealed pain. – Ezra Bayda, “The Three Things we Fear Most” |
