Sarah Napthali is a mother of two young boys who tries to apply Buddhist teachings in her daily life.

Quotes by Sarah Napthali (?)

“Refusing to rate what we perceive helps us to cultivate feelings of acceptance rather than judgement, as we stop demanding that life be other than it is.”
― Sarah Napthali, Buddhism for Mothers: A Calm Approach to Caring for Yourself and Your Children

“The whole world is medicine'. We can learn from everything that happens to us.”

“I had uncovered a widely held but overlooked attachment: our attachment to the view that every problem must have a solution. We delude ourselves that we can think our way out of a problem or we see it as a matter of finding the right person to advise us. We become beggars for our problems, asking numerous people for an opinion. So often, we refuse to relax until a problem is fixed, only to discover our inability to relax was most of the problem.”
― Sarah Napthali, Buddhism for Mothers of Young Children: Becoming a Mindful Parent
