i can be breathed






.



A monk dwells contemplating the body in the body, ardent, clearly comprehending and mindful, overcoming covetousness and grief in the world;

He dwells contemplating the feelings in the feelings, ardent, clearly comprehending and mindful, and putting aside greed and distress with reference to the world;

He dwells contemplating the states of mind in the states of mind, ardent, clearly contemplating andmindful, overcoming covetousness and grief in the world;

He dwells contemplating thoughts and perceptions in the thoughts and perceptions, ardent, clearly contemplating and mindful, overcoming covetousness and grief in the world.


—Satipatthana Sutta
The Four Foundations of Mindfulness


 

.



I can be infinitely more relaxed than I am.

I can be infinitely more sensitive to my sensations.

I can be breathed.

I can be open to a thought from above.



—William Segal
