We change the world and heal others by who we become – by our presence and by the love and light we radiate.

The moment I realize I haven't been present, I become present; Then nothing is lost.
Observe how the mind always draws attention to past & future. Regret & Worry, reminicing & planning: these are the mental habits that distract us from the NOW. Observing the patterns with loving attention (not judging or analyzing) dissolves them.
Learn from your mistakes without dwelling on them. You can learn NOW while staying present. Regrets and self-doubt just drag you down, back into the past where the egoic mind feeds on itself, like a snake eating its own tail.
Mindfulness: It's not what you think.
Observe how the mind creates unhappiness. By watching the mechanics of the mind, you step out of the resistance patterns, and then allow the present moment to be. Accept -- then act. Whatever the present contains, accept it as if you had chosen it.
— Eckhart Tolle
Mindfulness: It's not what you think.
"Be like the earth. When the rain comes, the earth simply opens up to the rain and soaks it all in."
— Thich Nhat Hahn, from his latest book, Savor
To be positive is not to repress the negative. What we resist, persists. When fear (or anger or loss) comes knocking, don't bar the door. Invite them in. Tell them "Hello, old friend. Come sit by the fire." Focus on them intently & watch them change!
Be Tara's Flute! May I be as a hallow bone for Spirit. May I resonate with compassion. May Tara's song flow through me, as a flute carrying her notes to the People. In humble service, I open to the Heart Chant, who sings through me!

Amid ruins in the Dingle Peninsula, the west of Ireland, there are over 300 of these ancient stones. Etched with the first written Celtic language, they date back to the 5th century B.C.
Blessings to you as you remember your strength, beauty, and inner light. Blessings to you as you embark on your journey to remember the truth of who you are.

If everyone channeled the energy that is created from our complaining about what is not working to positive thoughts and intentions, we'd see a great deal of positive change on the planet.

We have to develop new ways of thinking...in alignment with our vision.... It's a matter of changing the way we think throughout the day. We must make this work a way of life....We need to dig deep and uproot the blocking beliefs...with creativity.

All genuine healing & transformative action arises out of an inner space of acceptance. Can I in this moment be with what's really happening? To have the honesty & courage to face my fear or loss, that quality of presence gives rise to wise action.
