Mindful Methods For Life2023-10-04T11:53:22-07:00

Mindfulness develops attention, concentration and the ability to simply be present with little or no future orientation, past orientation or goal orientation—choosing to be a human being rather than a human doing.

    Compassion is not a relationship between the healer and the wounded.
    It’s a relationship between equals.
    Only when we know our own darkness well can we be present with the darkness of others.
    Compassion becomes real when we recognize our shared humanity.
