Letting Everything Become Your Teacher: 100 Lessons in Mindfulness QUOTES

1 " It is only when the mind is open and receptive that learning and seeing and change can occur. "

― Jon Kabat-Zinn , Letting Everything Become Your Teacher: 100 Lessons in Mindfulness

2 " In this regard, cultivating mindfulness is not unlike the process of eating. It would be absurd to propose that someone else eat for you. And when you go to a restaurant, you don’t eat the menu, mistaking it for the meal, nor are you nourished by listening to the waiter describe the food. You have to actually eat the food for it to nourish you. In the same way, you have to actually practice mindfulness in order to reap its benefits and come to understand why it is so valuable. "

3 " Healing implies the possibility for us to relate differently to illness, disability, even death, as we learn to see with eyes of wholeness. Healing is coming to terms with things as they are. "
