 We practice learning not to shut our eyes, to notice without judgment, to see with unconditional acceptance, and to let go without effort that which stands in the way of loving the world.

Mini Mindfulness Break for May 23, 2019
 Most of us think of love as a one-to-one relationship, which is the limitation of love on the physical level. But there is no limit to our capacity to love. We can never be satisfied by loving just one person here, another there. Our need is to love completely, universally, without any reservations – in other words, to become love itself.

Mini Mindfulness Break for May 08, 2019
 When we bear witness, when we become the situation – homelessness, poverty, illness, violence, death – the right action arises by itself… Peacemaking is the functioning of bearing witness. Once we listen with our entire body and mind, loving action arises.

 Uncovering Love
Because a loving heart is the very nature of every human being, to cultivate love does not mean to fabricate something that is not already present. Rather, it means to identify and gradually remove the many obstacles that block access to our loving heart. – Beth Roth, “Family Dharma: A Bedtime Ritual” |

Mini Mindfulness Break for February 24, 2019
 “The Buddha, Shakyamuni, our teacher, predicted that the next Buddha would be Maitreya, the Buddha of love…. It is possible that the next Buddha will not take the form of an individual. The next Buddha may take the form of a community, a community practicing understanding and loving kindness, a community practicing mindful living. And the practice can be carried out as a group, as a city, as a nation.”
-Thich Nhat Hanh, “The Next Buddha May Be A Sangha” – Thich Nhat Hanhin Inquiring Mind journal, Spring 1994., “The Next Buddha May Be A Sangha” NOTE: This month we celebrate my teacher, Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh who is now residing in his original temple, Tu Hieu in Vietnam. According to Plum Village sources, he plans to spend the rest of his days there, walking and visiting the resting place of his teacher. My book, Mindfulness Breaks, Your Path to Awakening, celebrates Thich Nhat Hanh and one of my first teachers, Father Eli. The book is being released this month. Chick on the link below or in the bio for more information. |

Mini Mindfulness Break for December 25, 2018
 Equanimity is a spacious,
vast, and even state of mind; it does not take sides. It’s not about being untouched by the world, but letting go of fixed ideas. How else are we to develop compassion and loving-kindness for everyone and everything? Equanimity levels the playing field – we are not excluding anyone from our practice. – Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche |
