 The purpose of mediation practice is not enlightenment; it is to pay attention even at unextraordinary times, to be of the present, nothing-but-the-present, to bear this mindfulness of now into each event of ordinary life.

Mini Mindfulness Break for April 13, 2020
 Recently I’ve been pondering a process I call “bewilderment”–or, as I like to pronounce it, be-wilder-ment. It’s like enlightenment, but way less ambitious. I figure if we all become a little wilder, a little more present, a little more connected to whatever it is that makes dogs so damn happy, we’ll feel better and do better things. The first step in the bewilderment process, upon which everything else depends, is simple: CALM DOWN.

Mini Mindfulness Break for April 07, 2020
 With each moment, no matter what is going on, the practice is to find the willingness, the courage, the faith, the compassion simply to come back to the present, come back to this heart, come back to this person – not give up just because it’s difficult.

 My path is the path of stopping, the path of enjoying the present moment. It is a path
where every step brings me back to my true home. It is a path that leads nowhere. I am on my way home. I arrive at every step.” – Thich Nhat Hanh Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 No Past, No Future, Only This
There is nothing other than this present moment; there is no past, there is no future; there is nothing but this. So when we don’t pay attention to each little this, we miss the whole thing. – Charlotte Joko Beck, “Attention Means Attention “ Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 Right Now
The key instruction is to stay in the present. Don’t get caught up in hopes of what you’ll achieve and how good your situation will be some day in the future. What you do right now is what matters. – Pema Chodron Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 Great Determination
When the great root of faith and the great ball of doubt are present, great determination will arise. Great determination is a strong resolve that wells up from the bottom of our gut and spurs us on. – Koun Yamada, “Great Faith, Great Doubt, Great Determination “ Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

Mini Mindfulness Break for October 19, 2019
 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.

 Whose Presence Do You Value?
Many of us have a mind that measures self-worth in terms of productivity. . . . We give ourselves no credit for just being present. And yet, if you asked the people you care about what they would like most from you, their answer is likely to be some version of “your presence.” – Jan Chozen Bays, “The Gift of Waiting” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |
