All the wonders of life can only be found in the present moment through the practice of conscious breathing. By learning to be aware of every movement, every thought, and every feeling that arise in our daily life, we will touch peace and joy that are available within and around us. The community’s collective energy of mindfulness as well as the trees, the birds, and the sunshine will also help us to embrace our thoughts and feelings as they arise, so that we can continue to feel solid and calm. With continued practice, we will be able to touch the pain that lies deep in us - the fear, anger, and despair - with mindfulness and tenderness so we can be healed and transformed.
