The key to cultivating confidence in ourselves is understanding our right to make the truth our own.

Meditation teaches us to focus and to pay clear attention to our experiences and responses as they arise, and to observe them without judging them.

Meditation is not a matter of trying to stop thinking or make your mind go blank but rather to realize when your attention is wandering and to simply let go of the thoughts and begin again. It is a way of changing our relationship to our thoughts, so we're not so consumed by them, with no sense of space. Having a newly spacious relationship to our thoughts brings both peace and freedom.

People turn to meditation because they want to make good decisions, break bad habits & bounce back better from disappointments.

Compassion isn't morose; it's something replenishing and opening; that's why it makes us happy.

True happiness is born of letting go of what is unnecessary.

In those moments when we realize how much we cannot control, we can learn to let go.
