The real meditation practice is how we live our lives from moment to moment to moment.

Arriving someplace more desirable at some future time is an illusion. This is it.

Just watch this moment, without trying to change it at all. What is happening? What do you feel? What do you see? What do you hear?

If we are honest with ourselves, most of us will have to admit that we live out our lives in an ocean of fear.

Practice moment to moment non-judgemental awareness.

Mindfulness is a way of paying attention, on purpose and non-judgmentally, to what goes on in the present moment in your body, mind and the world around you.

You are only here now; you're only alive in this moment.

You could think of mindfulness as wise and affectionate attention.

No one can listen to your body for you... To grow and heal, you have to take responsibility for listening to it yourself.

All the suffering, stress, and addiction comes from not realizing you already are what you are looking for.

The little things? The little moments? They aren't little.

Patience is a form of wisdom. It demonstrates that we understand and accept the fact that sometimes things must unfold in their own time.

Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way: on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally.

We take care of the future best by taking care of the present now.

It is indeed a radical act of love just to sit down and be quiet for a time by yourself.

You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf.

I believe democracy requires a 'sacred contract' between journalists and those who put their trust in us to tell them what we can about how the world really works.

I take "We, the People" seriously because I don't know how we build a civilization without reciprocity.

There's hardly a more bitter pill to take than when a President disappoints the people who most believed in him.
