If you are having the experience of anxiety, your body is making adrenaline and cortisone, if you are having the experience of tranquility, your body starts making valium, if you are having the experience of exhilaration and joy, your body makes interleukins and interferons which are powerful anti-cancer drugs. So, your body is constantly converting your experiences into molecules.

The only thing that matters is the choice you are making now--this very instant.

Pain is not the same as suffering. Left to itself, the body discharges pain spontaneously, letting go of it the moment that the underlying cause is healed. Suffering is pain that we hold on to. It comes from the mind’s mysterious instinct to believe that pain is good, or that it cannot be escaped, or that the person deserves it.

There is one experience that brings joy or happiness to every living being. The experience of love.

The past is gone, the future is not here, now I am free of both. Right now, I choose joy.

Don't judge yourself; simply return your attention to what's in front of you right now.

Vegetarianism is a healthier diet.
