Meditation is taking
control of your mind
by
directing its
awareness towards
something else, like
your breath.
Remember we are
trying to strengthen
our PEACE of mind
muscles. This can't
be done without
peace. It's like
trying to lift
weights without the
weights. Meditation
is the mind-body
tool that will
remove fears, reduce
cravings, strengthen
self-awareness, and
increase our ability
to make proper
choices when
perceiving a
stressful event.

Buddha
"All that we are is
a result of what we
have thought. What
we think we become."
Buddha
"Hatred does more
damage to the
container in which
it is stored than to
the object on which
it is poured."

Stress
Stress is an
integral part of
everyone's life. It
seems the more you
try to avoid stress,
the more stress
finds you. Stress is
not something to be
managed. Stress is
an everyday fact of
life. What needs to
be managed is our
response to stress.
One of the most
powerful ways to do
this to to learn how
to meditate.
Being
Depak Chopra aptly
said we are human
"be"ings and not
human "do"ings . We
certainly have
perfected our
ability to juggle
multiple balls at
one time. However,
we have not
perfected our
ability to quiet our
mind and truly
become a human
Being.
