“If you miss the here, you are also likely to miss the there.
If your mind is not centered here, it is likely not to be centered
just because you arrive somewhere else.”
– Jon Kabbat–Zinn

Mindfulness is a love affair—with life, with reality and with imagination, with the beauty of your own being, with your heart and body and mind, and with the world.

—Jon Kabat-Zinn

Through repeated meditation practice, we can build awareness of our existing mental habits. With awareness, there is space—allowing us to interrupt habitual response patterns and bring intention to our responses, choosing to form a different association.

—Wendy Hasenkamp, “Brain Karma”
