25.01.2022 "Meditating on forgiveness is not terribly different from a loving-kindness practice, as both invite us to be with our emotional states without judging them and to use the meditation as the anchor of our attention. These practices require courage, as we are not denying our suffering or the harmful action we've taken. Forgiveness is not passive, but an active gesture of releasing feelings like anger, guilt, and resentment, all of which deplete us if we become lost in them. Forgiveness demands presence, reminding us that we are not the same as the feelings we possess in a given situation, nor is the person who we’ve harmed or who has harmed us." https://www.mindful.org/practice-self-compassion-with-forg/

24.01.2022 Join us in the tranquil Sunshine Coast Hinterland, to learn mindfulness, or to deepen your mindfulness practice, and find out how to use mindfulness and other simple practices to get yourself "unstuck" from habits that no longer serve you. You too can find freedom from the suffering of modern life that we come to assume is inevitable, such as stress, anxiety, depression, self doubt, perfectionism and pain. Some feedback from a past participant: "I feel empowered to manage my anxiety by using the techniques you taught me. The entire weekend was incredibly healing and an experience I'll never forget. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your compassion and wisdom."

20.01.2022 We may appear serene if we say, I’m not attached. It doesn’t matter what happens anyway, because it’s all transitory. We feel a certain peaceful relief becaus...e we withdraw from experience and from the energies of life. But indifference is based on fear. True equanimity is not a withdrawal; it is a balanced engagement with all aspects of life. It is opening to the whole of life with composure and ease of mind, accepting the beautiful and terrifying nature of all things. Equanimity embraces the loved and the unloved, the agreeable and the disagreeable, the pleasure and pain. It eliminates clinging and aversion. http://ow.ly/jbiB30dHHeN See more

19.01.2022 So often, within the privacy of our inner worlds, we take the difficult thing and make it worse. Our own subliminal hate speech coats our experience and gives an added layer of meaning to things that are already difficult enough. ~@Mark Epstein #advicenotgiven

19.01.2022 Mmm, a delicious invitation to enjoy the neglected oranges falling from the trees in the yard.

16.01.2022 I love this. Compassion is as simple as really paying attention to the people around us, especially the people that serve us in shops.

12.01.2022 When you take birth, you are extremely vulnerable. You’re at the whim of all the forces around you, so what you develop through socialization are techniques for... your own survival as a separate entity. That survival comes from creating boundaries so that you don’t just get wiped out. Those boundaries as a little person, as a child, are enlarged by being a member of your family, where you have allies, and are now a part of a group. It becomes, I have people that are gonna help me. We’ve agreed to help one another. You know, not all the time, but I’m thinking more in physical proximity than in a psychological sense. So we grow up feeling that our identity groups gives us power, while it’s also securing our separateness. You can see this within the bigger system of nation-states where there are these huge egos. What’s very interesting historically at the moment we’re living in, is that the sometimes multicultural economic structures are becoming more powerful than the nation-states. The nation-states are in deep doodoo economically, and the industries are doing great. So that the reference to, I am an American, while it’s great, is no longer absolute salvation for you, because there’s a whole other ball game playing here...

08.01.2022 "What would I do if I wasn’t meditating? I could watch Netflix, or have a mindless session of scrolling on social media, or take a trip to the freezer for some ...ice cream, or sleep. What I mean to say is it is strangely comforting to know that when I rise from a shitty sitting round, all the things I would’ve been doing were probably shittier anyway. Instead I spent 30 minutes trying (and perhaps failing) to be present." See more

02.01.2022 Living here and now brings more beauty and mystery. Watch how children play. They know they will be called home, yet they give themselves fully to their adventu...res. You too will be called, as we all will. But for now, why not live fully awake? Fully inhabiting the present, you can plant seeds for a future that will unfold them in due season. Living now frees your heart to transform all you touch. As William Butler Yeats writes, when you are fully present others live a clearer, perhaps even fiercer life because of it. Each moment of presence is an act of courage. It may bring you tears and a tender heart. And yet, living in the present with all its joys and sorrows offers you a precious gift, the benevolence of being at home in this mysterious universe. http://ow.ly/wCro30dJaB9 See more
