 No hero’s journey ever ends, and your next adventure is already happening. The moment you accept the call to adventure, the road of trials begins finding its way from your unconscious awareness into your consciousness, freeing and expanding your Imagination, helping you become the healing you hope to create.

Mini Mindfulness Break for July 04, 2019
 Abbot Lot came to Abbot Joseph and said: Father, according as I am able, I keep my little rule, and my little fast, my prayer, meditation and contemplative silence; and according as I am able I strive to cleanse my heart of thoughts: now what more should I do? The elder rose up in reply and stretched out his hands to heaven, and his fingers became like ten lamps of fire. He said: Why not be utterly changed into fire?
From Thomas Merton: The Wisdom of the Desert I’ve never quite lost the perspective that what we call “reality” is a projection of consciousness. Suffering is genuine, significant, and truly horrible. But under it — around it, containing it — is something much more true. It brings light and grace to all the horror. It makes sense of everything. – Martha Beck, Virtually Freaking Out, Shiny Objects Blog Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

Mini Mindfulness Break for June 22, 2019
 Sometimes, when I can’t reach the Calm, I’ll just stomp into the Storm with the wild hope that it’s more benevolent than it seems. With a sort of inner Viking war scream, I’ll open the grim and complicated spreadsheets from the bank, or go get the painful medical test, or initiate the conversation I’m way too afraid to have. If there’s nothing else to do, I’ll sit in a silent room, refuse to distract myself, and face the tempest in my mind.

 Here’s the thing: we can’t save ourselves from fear by seeking safety, because safety always means there’s something to be safe from–in other words, something to fear. The way out of fear isn’t safety. It’s freedom.

 There’s magic in transitional times. In the moments when we’re no longer what we were, but not yet what we will become, we can choose to be anything.

Mini Mindfulness Break for January 30, 2019
 People whose hearts have been injured armor themselves against further pain, rejecting anything with the potential to touch them deeply. If you tend to respond to love by running or panicking, don’t push yourself. You must eventually get over the problem if you want your emotional wounds to heal, but you can’t force this to happen. Just try to accept as much compassion as possible, in whatever form you can stand it. Persist in this effort and, over time, your resistance to love will relax.
