With an attitude of kindness and curiosity
Direct your attention
to feeling the sensations
of your next 3 breaths

“Acceptance doesn’t, by any stretch of the imagination, mean passive resignation.

Quite the opposite.

It takes a huge amount of fortitude and motivation to accept what is
especially when you don’t like it
and then work mindfully as best you possibly can
with the circumstances you find yourself in,
and with the resources at your disposal,
to be in wise relationship with what is,


which may mean at some point 
to mitigate, 
heal 
redirect
 or 
change what can be changed.”

-Jon Kabat-Znn


Enjoy a Mindful Day
