"Between stimulus and response there is a space.
In that space is our power to choose our response.
In our response lies our growth and our freedom."
-Viktor E. Frankl

Please note that I will be pausing the act of sending mindfulness practice daily reminders for the remainder of June.

Pausing is a foundation for the practice of mindfulness.

Pausing provides us with the space to observe more clearly, then consciously choose a response to what is observed.

Consider using this pause to reflect upon the intention of the daily reminders, (http://mpdr.ca/)
and your personal intention for subscribing.
Then consciously choose either to continue receiving them in July or, if they are no longer helpful, to unsubscribe at the bottom of this email.

Wishing you many...
moments of mindful awareness
moments of well-being
moments of peace
moments of meaningful connection
moments of joy

About MPDR Archives

The posts featured on this page are the archived collection of the Mindfulness Practice Daily Reminders (MPDR) that has been sent out daily since July, 2014 to help recipients remember their intention to practice present moment awareness through formal and informal mindfulness practice.

Each daily reminder contains 4 components:

1. Invitation to bring awareness to 3 breaths.

2. Quote, poem, link to video, article or blog-post relevant to the practice of mindfulness.

3. Photographic image created from my formal mindfulness practice with a camera.

4. Wishes for the reader.

After opening the email and taking 3 mindful breaths, recipients are invited to consciously choose whether they have the time or interest in reading or watching anything further, rather than automatically clicking on the link. In this way they are practicing bringing mindful awareness practice into conscious decision making and action.
