I still rely on a breathing meditation verse from this book when I find myself becoming overwhelmed... So simple, yet so incredibly powerful.

Helpful short meditations or mantras. It helps to take each one and focus on it by itself.

This had some great insights, but was also a bit too repetitive for my liking. I will take from it what I can use and leave the rest.

One of my goals is to be in the moment with whatever I'm doing. I tend to get caught up being sad about the past or worrying about the future. But there's no point. The only moment I have is now so I might as well be in this moment. I'm not guaranteed any more. Reflecting on the past and learning from my mistakes are valuable as is visualizing the future. I think there is a time and place for those things. But for the most part I want to focus on and be fully present with what I'm doing right now.

Definitely a good book to have, curious about how it might be a tool for building a mindfulness practice but not sure how realistic that is as a goal for me right now. I hope to keep coming back!
