Weekend Zen, December 21-22

This naked moment is the only 

guide we need to relax our mind.  

We need to trust this: in the midst of 

our daily life activities, the possibility

 to slow down, to stop, and then 

to appreciate, naturally unfolds. 

~ Elizabeth Searle Lamb

Daily Zen - Friday, February 2

There are no steps to follow,

there is no enlightenment to 

work toward –– there is only

the simplicity of relaxing 

into this very moment that

is complete in itself.

~ Elizabeth Searle Lamb

Daily Zen - Thursday, February 1

Pausing is the doorway to awakening...

We pause not only with our body, but also

with our mind. And sometimes we can be

attentive and sometimes we cannot, but that

is alright, for the next moment always brings

us the fresh possibility to be present again.

~ Elizabeth Searle Lamb

Weekend Zen, March 12-13

...in the midst of our daily life activities, 

the possibility to slow down, to stop, 

and then to appreciate naturally unfolds. 

For a fleeting moment we pause and note

the sunlight on the sheets...note the warm sun 

on our cup as we sip tea, or note the fading 

on the curtain as we enter the room.  

And we let out a breath or sigh. Pausing.

~ Elizabeth Searle Lamb
