HERE

9/26/2021

 
What if you are already enough—here, now, just as you are? Nothing to be ashamed of. Nothing to prove. Right here in this moment on your journey, as it should be.

In mindful presence,
​Lori Furbush
Enlightenment is not something you achieve. It is the absence of something. All your life you have been going forward after something, pursuing some goal. Enlightenment is dropping all that.
​
―Charlotte Joko Beck

ALLOW

9/19/2021

 
When facing a challenge, we often add to our stress load by resisting reality. Allowing does not mean to just give up and let life steamroll you. But we can allow the reality of the moment at hand, even a disturbing moment. This gives the more evolved parts of the brain and nervous system time to kick into gear, giving us more clarity and power to either choose a course of action or to choose to let this one go. Allowing can be empowering.

In mindful presence,

Meditation is not about feeling a certain way. It’s about feeling the way you feel.

―Dan Harris

ACTION

9/12/2021

 
Taking action is an important tool for addressing discomfort. If there is something we can do about a situation, we can make a plan and work the plan. And if there is no more action to be taken, we can then process our tensions and emotions through physical movement, sharing with a friend, and turning to our inner resources. It’s like that saying, “Do what you can. Let go of the rest.”

In mindful presence,
Lori Furbush
Why be unhappy about something if it can be remedied? And what is the use of being unhappy about something if it cannot be remedied?

―Joseph Goldstein

NOW

9/5/2021

 
It’s important to review the past, collecting experiences and information. And it’s important to think of the future, setting goals and making plans. There is also so much life to be lived in the present, and so much that we miss when we’re somewhere else. The word now can be a touchstone, pooling all your resources back to where you are.

In mindful presence,
​Lori Furbush
Life is always where we are.

―Mark Nepo
