PEBBLE (resource)
Volume Control: a guidebook for highly sensitive people in a loud & spiky world
by Jen Butler
BOULDER (activity)
Buddha's Five Remembrances, often recited in Buddhist practice, are reflections on the nature of life and human existence. They are:
- I am of the nature to grow old.
- Aging is unavoidable.
- I am of the nature to experience illness.
- Illness is unavoidable.
- I am of the nature to die.
- Death is unavoidable.
- Everyone and everything I love will change,
- and I will be separated from them.
- My actions are my only true belongings.
- I cannot escape the consequences of my actions.
- My actions are the ground upon which I stand.
These remembrances serve as a reminder to live mindfully and ethically, accepting the impermanence of life.
Here's the Dan Harris podcast episode I learned about this from, and here is a simple image of them I made for my iPhone
Here's a link to the resource page of Depolarization Resources I mentioned, too.
