Effect on Emotions

• Mindfulness affects my emotions. I have come to the place that I am not a prisoner of any emotion that I have.
• Mindfulness allows me to admit that at times I may not be feeling good, but I know what to do about it. Mindfulness makes me free as a bird.

Thoughts on Breathing

• Breathing is one of the most important healing tools out there. It allows one to become aware of every breath you take. That is your life.
• You may think your life is about getting up in the morning and going to work. Actually it's about breathing. I concentrate on my breathing a lot.

Bullying Story

• I was often bullied growing up as a redheaded girl in Europe, where red hair was still tied to old superstitions about witchcraft. The teasing left me isolated, with few friends and many lonely days.

• Looking back, I realize that if mindfulness had been part of our lives and if we had understood that we are all connected, the cruelty might have softened. Those who bullied me were also hurting themselves. You can’t harm another without carrying that energy inside you.

   

• Still, my journey shaped me. The bullying, the health challenges, and later, parenting teenagers who face their own struggles; all of it formed who I am today.

• My experiences are the foundation of my work and the reason this book exists: to help others find healing through awareness and compassion.
