 Run the Way You Sit
We experience the gradual awakening to pure awareness that develops over the days, months, and years as we sit. When it comes to exercise, the principle is the same. We let the mind and body go on their own run, noting but not minding at all. – Michael Hoffman, “Mind on the Run” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 As If There is Nothing to Lose
Gratitude, the simple and profound feeling of being thankful, is the foundation of all generosity. I am generous when I believe that right now, right here, in this form and this place, I am myself being given what I need. Generosity requires that we relinquish something, and this is impossible if we are not glad for what we have. Otherwise the giving hand closes into a fist and won’t let go. – Sallie Jiko Tisdale, “As If There is Nothing to Lose” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 Humanized Once More
We must realize that modern civilization is thoroughly oriented towards dehumanizing humanity in every possible way; that is to say, we are fast turning into robots or statues with no human souls. Our task is to get humanized once more. – D. T. Suzuki, “Humanized Once More” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 Change Your Relationship to Pain
You change your relationship to the pain by opening up to it and paying attention to it. You ‘put out the welcome mat.’ Not because you’re masochistic, but because the pain is there. So you need to understand the nature of the experience and the possibilities for, as the doctors might put it, ‘learning to live with it,’ or, as the Buddhists might put it, ‘liberation from the suffering.’ If you distinguish between pain and suffering, change is possible. – Jon Kabat-Zinn, “At Home in Our Bodies” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 The Right Pitch
Cultivating skillful effort, we learn to distinguish the ‘right’ amount of effort. Not too little. Not too much. Just right. In tune. When we find the right pitch, our practice flourishes. – Peter Doobinin, “Skillful Effort” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 The Free Flowing Mind
If the mind congeals in one place and remains with one thing, it is like frozen water and is unable to be used freely: ice that can wash neither hands nor feet. When the mind is melted and is used like water, extending throughout the body, it can be sent wherever one wants to send it. – Takuan Soho, “The Right Mind and the Confused Mind” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |
