Discover how the Buddha’s teachings on the Four Noble Truths and mindful practice can help us end suffering by letting go of attachments and negative thoughts.
Funny how the path to peace always starts with setting down the thing we’re convinced we can’t live without. Like that thought we’ve rehearsed 10,000 times in our heads, convinced it’s our personality.
Thanks for this reminder. Sometimes the most radical thing we can do is... nothing. Just sit. Breathe. Watch the circus parade of thoughts go by without auditioning to join it.
I truly needed this wisdom today (and in reality need it every day), thank you for providing it and making it both so eloquent and accessible. This was especially gorgeous: "Just entertain the idea of lightness." ❤❤❤

Thank you for your kind words, Stephanie. We all need reminders like that (myself included), and it means a lot to know it landed for you.
The most important part of our practice is that.
Our practice.
Yes, it's valuable to learn and have an intellectual understanding of the path, but we must live it, walk it, breathe it.
Absolutely, Jimmy. Our practice is indeed where the real transformation happens :)
