Meditation is, first of all, a tool for surveying our territory so we can know what is going on. With the energy of mindfulness, we can calm things down, understand them, and bring harmony back to the conflicting elements inside us.
Nhat HanhPeople have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar.
Nhat HanhMeditation is to be aware of what is going on in your body, in your feelings, in your mind, and in the world.
