Among all the reasons for practicing a form of meditation, we have found that the best reason is to stay in touch with ourselves. In other words one returns to home base--our core and our essence. And from home base you can easily and more comfortably tackle whatever the day brings.
"This is a very important practice. Live your daily life in a way that you never lose yourself.
When you are carried away with your worries, fears, cravings, anger, and desire, you run away from yourself and you lose yourself.
The practice is always to go back to oneself."
~Thich Nhat Hanh
"The moment you understand the importance of loving yourself, you will stop hurting others."
~ Thich Nhat Hanh
"When you climb a ladder and arrive on the sixth step and you think that is the highest, then you cannot come to the seventh. So the technique is to abandon the sixth in order for the seventh step to be possible. And this is our practice, to release our views.
Thich Nhat Hanh
"Take my hand. We will walk. We will only walk. We will enjoy our walk without thinking of arriving anywhere."
~ Thich Nhat Hanh
Happy Labor Day!
