Allow your dog to take you for a walk every day. It's good for the body and it's good for the soul.

Hang on to the inner body, let it be the anchor, then you're present. If they say something challenging and you lose it again, pause, and anchor again. Practice, practice, continuous practice-becaus e when you're in touch with the inner body, spaciousness arises.

If I cannot live with myself, there must be two of me: the 'I' and the 'self' that 'I' cannot live with. Maybe, I thought, only one of them is real.

Present-moment awareness creates a gap not only in the stream of mind but also in the past-future continuum. Nothing truly new and creative can come into this world except through that gap, that clear space of infinite possibility.

Compassion is the awareness of a deep bond between yourself and all creatures.

You are not what happens in your life. You are the space in which it happens, which is consciousness itself.

Surrender comes when you no longer ask, 'Why is this happening to me?'
