Keeping your body healthy is an expression of gratitude to the whole cosmos — the trees, the clouds, everything.
Nhat HanhLook deeply; I arrive in every second to be a bud on a spring branch ... to be a jewel hiding itself in a stone.
Nhat Hanh"I am breathing in and liberating my mind. I am breathing out and liberating my mind." One practices like this.
Nhat HanhDealing with our overweight - or with any of our life's difficulties, for that matter - is not a battle to be fought. Instead, we must learn how to make friends with our hardships and challenges. They are there to help us; they are natural opportunities for deeper understanding and transformation, brining us more joy and peace as we learn to work with them.
