Enlightenment doesn't care if you're wearing yoga pants. #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

Attempting to clear your mind is nothing more than using thought to try to stop thinking. #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

We can't control how we feel, but we CAN control how we approach our feelings. #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

Simply increasing the size of one's spiritual hammer will never replace a well-stocked tool belt. #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

How can you let go when you can't see where you're holding on? #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

Fear is a cloud. It's scary to go inside. "What if I can't get back out?" But once you do, you see the illusion: it's just vapor. Try to touch its core existence; nothing's there. And in the absence of stormy causes, it simply evaporates. #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

Our self is the thing that tells us what our self is. #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

Knowledge is understanding your experience. Wisdom is realizing that everyone's experience is different and equally valid. #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

Sometimes, "the only way out is through" - but even then, it doesn't have to be all at once. #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

Our minds like to think they're running the show; our bodies smile and say "cool story bro." #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

Why get wrapped up in a thought process that will just disappear as soon as you're no longer wrapped up in it? #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

Anyone can be good or bad to you, but only you can be good or bad to yourself. #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

Our biggest problems aren't what we think they are; they're how we DEAL with what we think they are. #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

The simplest attention often leads to the greatest shift. #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

Ironically, by being unwilling to loosen our grip on what we think we have, we might lose so much more. #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

Feelings of happiness and comfort become little more than pretty shells for vulnerability and fear when viewed as "things we have" rather than "things that are." #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

If you fight yourself, you've already lost. What happens if you loosen your grip on your weapons for a moment ... or put them down entirely? (It's ok to try; they'll still be there if you want them back.) #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

Sometimes the nastiest trap on the path is thinking that you're becoming a worse person when you might actually just be seeing the dark sides more clearly. #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism

"I'm not practicing properly" is just a thought we can use to practice properly. #mindfulness #meditation #yoga #buddhism
