“Next time you are running late for an event, rather than worrying about not arriving on time and constantly checking the clock for assurance, validate yourself internally and then do not check the clock. Instead, imagine a block of time or space opening up for you, allowing you to get to your destination with the right amount of time to spare. Be open to the magic that wants to set you free from all impossibilities, and you may just surprise yourself!”

“Meditation is not, as many people think, about turning the brain off and reaching stillness. Meditation is simply about turning inward and being present, about witnessing your consciousness and emotions as aspects of your identity. It’s nearly impossible to block all thoughts, so don’t beat yourself up. Meditation is about what you do when the mind strays and how you return to the ceaseless wonder of your magical breath and being. Remember, meditation is a practice, not something to perfect.”
