Stick with It
This is why we practice meditation–so that we can treat ourselves more compassionately; improve our relationships with friends, family, and community; live lives of greater connection; and, even in the face of challenges, stay in touch with what we really care about so we can act in ways that are consistent with our values. – Sharon Salzberg, “Sticking with It” |

Our Dangerous Romance with Anger
As a culture we swing from being afraid of anger to romanticizing it. I try to see anger for what it is, in myself, and neither fear it nor idealize it. – Sharon Salzberg, “The Deluding Force “ |

A More Complete Attention
On trains, in the street, in our homes and communities, we practice paying attention–through developing mindfulness and lovingkindness and through letting go of projections–partly because a more complete attention proffers many special gifts. These gifts can penetrate through the exigencies of social roles, the seeming hollowness of chance encounters, and even through terrible hurt. – Sharon Salzberg, “A More Complete Attention” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

Mini Mindfulness Break for January 24, 2020
So, beginning again: your attention will go somewhere eventually, one breath, two breaths, ten breaths later. It will go to the past, it will go to the future, judgment, speculation, somewhere. And that is an extraordinary moment when we realize we’ve been gone because that truly is an opportunity to be very different… we practice letting go, we practice starting over, we practice beginning again out of very great compassion and kindness. That’s actually quite radical.

Study Deepens Faith
Faith is a quality that grows as you question, explore, and really put teachings into practice. The more you study, the less dogmatic you get. – Sharon Salzberg, “Then & Now “ Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

Mini Mindfulness Break for January 31, 2019
“Through meditation practice we learn to enter into silence, and there the fruits of the practice reveal themselves: wisdom, which is seeing deeply into the true nature of life, and compassion, the trembling of the heart in response to suffering. Wisdom reveals that we are all part of a whole, and compassion tells us that we can never really stand apart. Through this prism we see life with openness, knowing our oneness. We find wisdom and compassion coming to life, transforming how we understand ourselves and how we understand our world.”
