Mini Mindfulness Break for July 07, 2020

In the land of “I know,” there is always competitiveness, jealousy, pretense, pride and arrogance. It is an aggressive realm, the realm of the ego. I say, refuse citizenship. In the land of “I don’t know,” the inhabitants move without conflict and are naturally quiet, happy and peaceful. The wise stay here.

Open to the World

In order to communicate very openly with the world, you need to develop fundamental trust. This kind of trust is not trusting in something, but simply trusting. To be trusting means you are fundamentally free from doubt about your goodness and about the goodness of others.

At-home Practice

As you walk from room to room in your own home, try to really experience the transition of traveling from one place to another. Notice the differences between motion and stillness. Sense how you relate to various enclosures and open spaces.

Enjoying the Silence

Silence doesn’t mean not talking and not doing things; it means that you are not disturbed inside. If you’re truly silent, then no matter what situation you find yourself in you can enjoy the silence.

How to Savor

Since each moment’s meeting of a person or even a flower is precious and fleeting, it is to be savored completely, perhaps best in silence.

Mini Mindfulness Break for June 30, 2020

Sustained personal truth-telling will gradually cleanse your inner life. This, by the way, is what happens in good therapy: Each week a perceptive professional helps you admit to the real forces behind your actions. As you start to see your inner motivations more clearly, you begin relating differently to the world around you.

Acknowledging Our Blindspots

The capacity to recognize and accept where we are and to investigate what must be changed to minimize the harm that our own views and blindspots cause others is essential to the work of racial justice. And the capacity to do all of this with as little attachment and identification to the outcome is essential to true liberation.
