“Each of us needs to withdraw from the cares
which will not withdraw from us. We need hours of aimless wandering, or spates of time sitting on park benches, observing the mysterious world of ants and the canopy of trees.” – Maya Angelou Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

Eustress
Father Eli teaches that strain or eustress is necessary for life. For example, to develop a muscle, we put a load in it with weights or having to pull something.

When we make a commitment, our commitment is always to presence, not to what we’re committed to. If we focus on the commitment itself, conditioning distracts our attention from process to content. When a commitment becomes the end in itself it’s an instrument of suffering.

City Living
Living in a big city, sometimes we feel that we don’t know our neighbors but actually we know them well. They want pleasure and don’t want pain. This realization of similarity is not superficial; to know that each of us has hairs in the nose means we can always know something about others by reflecting on that fact. – Jeffrey Hopkins, “Equality: The First Step in Cultivating Compassion “ Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

Growing through Pain
The meditation orientation is not about fixing pain or making it better. It’s about looking deeply into the nature of pain–making use of it in certain ways that might allow us to grow. In that growing, things will change, and we have the potential to make choices that will move us toward greater wisdom and compassion, including self-compassion, and thus toward freedom from suffering. – Jon Kabat-Zinn, “At Home In Our Bodies” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |
