There are countless ways we can react but there is only one choice that will bring happiness and that is to love what is. Loving what is starts with allowing what is. Being present with what is. And when we are present with what is, we become that presence. ~ Tara Brach
July 27th Daily Meditation Moment
Whatever you think or do regularly becomes a habit, a strongly conditioned pathway in the brain. The more you think about what can go wrong, the more your mind is primed to anticipate trouble. The more you lash out in anger, the more your body and mind are geared toward aggression. The more you think about how you might help others, the more your mind and heart are inclined to be generous. Just as weight lifting builds muscles, the way you direct your attention can strengthen anxiety, hostility, and addiction, or it can lead you to healing and awakening. ~ Tara Brach
