Thank you for this post, Jay! We've spoken about this topic even before and two things have remained the same for me - my meditation practice is still inconsistent and my reattempt is still consistent. You've broken down the steps further here and I'm really hoping to utilise them and get better. Thank you again!
glad that the reattempt is consistent :-) that's the spirit. Please let me know if the 3-min exercise helps. You could even schedule it on your calendar - before your work days starts...
Wow! Can you recommend me few?
Here are 4 to get started :-)
1) Gautama Buddha - by Vishvapani Blomfield
2) The Heart Of Buddha's Teaching - by Thich Nhat Hanh
3) Happiness: A Guide to Developing Life's Most Important Skill - by Matthieu Ricard
4) No Self, No Problem: How Neuropsychology Is Catching Up to Buddhism - by Chris Niebauer Ph.D.
And one more -
5) Why Buddhism is True: The Science and Philosophy of Meditation and Enlightenment - by Robert Wright
Thank you so much Jay!! Haven’t read any. Will start.
Old path white clouds is an experience! Got to read it early this year! Changed something within.
Another beautiful post! Thank you!
During this time I read around 4 retellings of the Buddha's life, each different but each calls you to take this timeless path
