Most of the destruction that modern society has caused is the result of the mind being disconnected from the heart. When we tune into what really matters—breath, compassion, collaboration—we start to remember that we’re connected to something vast, mysterious, and beautiful.

With loving kindness, notice the energy of the mind—a river of thoughts, feelings, images, and words. You can hold it all in loving kindness and say, ‘Thank you for all that work, I’m okay just now, you can relax.’ 🧘🌻 #buddhanature #relax #awakening #spirituality #mindfulness

May your week ahead be filled with the soft breeze of loving kindness. ✨ #metta #lovingkindness #lovinngawareness #spiritrock

Ritual, ceremony, offering, and devotion all are powerful gateways back to the deep connection of the heart. When we have those in spiritual life, our practice and our being have the opportunity to open up in a beautiful way. #ritual #ceremony #devotion #offering #spirituality

“I take my sign, I go stand by the freeway, and I feel so good.” — Jack Kornfield Words by @trudy_goodman — “Jack stands by the freeway and holds up this sign: No more ICE raids. No more defunding. No more genocide. Practice mercy, and love.” Picture by @soren_gordhamer

Everything breathes—the breath breathes, the heart pumps, the galaxies turn—it’s all in flow. 🌬️ Right Understanding says that there is a different dimension of reality that is not dependent on changing conditions. #buddhism #spirituality #lovingawareness

When we bring our attention to the world, we find it isn’t solid—just as the oak tree is a moving process, our body isn’t solid, our thoughts and feelings are not solid, we are not solid… we are a moving process. 🌊✨ #attention #awareness #philosophy #impermanence #change

How do you relate to your body? 🧘‍♂️ Nature? Yoga? Swimming? Breathing? Massage? Meditation? My friend Ram Dass was in a wheelchair in the last years of his life, and found a way to relate to even his body’s pains and aches through loving awareness. 🤍 #spirituality #embodiment
