We find greater lightness & ease in our lives as we increasingly care for ourselves & other beings.

Faith is not a commodity that you either have or don't have enough of, or the right kind of. It's an ongoing process. The opposite of faith is despair.

The critical element in meditation practice is beginning again. Everyone loses focus at times, everyone loses interest at times, and everyone gets distracted over and over again. What is essential, and also incredibly transforming, is realizing that we have the ability to begin again, without blaming or judging ourselves, without thinking we have failed, without losing heart, we can, and need to, constantly be beginning again.

As we practice meditation we are bringing forth ease, presence, compassion, wisdom & trust.

Restore your attention or bring it to a new level by dramatically slowing down whatever you're doing.
