Mindfulness Is So Powerful That The Fact

Non-doing Has Nothing To Do With Being Indolent Or Passive. Quite The Contrary. It Takes Great Courage And Energy To Cultivate Non-doing, Both In Stillness And In Activity.

Awareness Is Not The Same As Thought. It Lies Beyond Thinking, Although It Makes No Use Of Thinking, Honoring It's Value And It's Power. Awareness Is More Like A Vessel Which Can Hold And Contain Our Thinking, Helping Us To See And Know Our Thought As Thought Rather Than Getting Caught Up In Them As Reality.

Mindfulness Is A Way Of Paying Attention, On Purpose And Non-judgmentally, To What Goes On In The Present Moment In Your Body, Mind And The World Around You.
