Some Helpful Thoughts for Daily Life
“Aware that life is available only in the present moment and that it is possible to live happily in the here and now; we are committed
to training ourselves to live deeply each moment of daily life. We will not allow ourselves to be carried away by regrets about the
past, worries about the future, or craving, anger, or jealousy in the present. We will practice mindful breathing to come back to what
is happening in the present moment. We are determined to learn the art of mindful living by touching the wondrous, refreshing, and
healing elements that are inside and around us, and by nourishing seeds of joy, peace, love, and understanding in ourselves, thus
facilitating the work of transformation and healing in our consciousness.”
