Find The Peace Within ...


A hot tub for the mind

With today’s fast pace of life, too many of us don’t have any sense of how it feels to be free of stress. It’s difficult to relax if we have physical pain or irritation, strong negative emotions or scattered, worrisome thoughts. The practice of meditation helps us find the peace within that is so elusive in our outer world.

"Imagine a hot tub for the mind. That is what meditation is; it can bathe your mind in relaxing thoughts." -- Eknath Easwaran


"Sometimes the most important thing in a whole day is the rest we take between two deep breaths, or the turning inwards in prayer for five short minutes." -- Etty Hillesum
