A contemplative path

Thich Nhat Hanh

For the days you feel scattered: small ways to come home to your breath, your step, your cup of tea.

Breathing and knowing that we breathe

A gentle invitation to notice the breath already moving through you, without needing to change a thing.

Let each unhurried step become a small homecoming to the earth beneath you and the life around you.

Looking deeply, we begin to see the many lives, gifts, and conditions held within even the simplest thing.

Mindfulness offers difficult feelings a tender place to rest, without asking them to disappear before they are ready.
