Tiny Buddha feeling bad

Plus many many more in page I have been proof-reading for days.

Remind me ...

When we fight against emotional pain, we get trapped in it. Difficult emotions become destructive and break down the mind, body, and spirit. Feelings get stuck, frozen in time, and we get stuck in them.

The happiness we long for in relationships seems to elude us. Satisfaction at work lies just beyond our reach. We drag ourselves through the day, arguing with our physical aches and pains.

Why Letting Ourselves Feel Bad Is the Key to Feeling Better

The essence of courage is to willingly feel our vulnerability; this is what allows us to respond to life with an undefended, wise heart.

In this week's talk, we explore the ways we resist opening to vulnerability, and three key steps in cultivating a courageous presence.

Enjoy your browsing!

Another book? -

Leder regards a cloudy day as a chance to slow down and do some inner-exploration or healing. He recommends that the next time you pass a tree, you pause and feel the exchange of breath and life between the two of you. The author sits in front of his computer and sees it as a model for a well-functioning mind. He looks at a windshield-wiper and wonders what he can clear away in his cluttered life. A fire-hydrant becomes a spiritual teacher of unplugging the energies you keep locked up inside. He suggests you muse on the spiritual meanings that come while you are watching a sports event, blowing bubbles, putting on your pajamas, and using your toaster.
