When experience is viewed in a certain way, it presents nothing but doorways into the soul.

Mindfulness is a way to rebalance ourselves. Instead of being lost in thought, or caught up in emotional upheaval, we can tip the scale in the direction of greater equanimity, clarity, wisdom, and self-compassion by actually learning how to inhabit that other dimension of our being.

From the perspective of meditation, every state is a special state, every moment a special moment.

The real meditative practice is to open up to the full range of what happens in life. And parenting is a fantastic arena for doing that kind of spiritual training. It's as much a potential door into enlightenment as anything else.

Practice moment to moment non-judgemental awareness.

Mindfulness is so powerful that the fact that it comes out of Buddhism is irrelevant.

We take care of the future best by taking care of the present now.
