The voice in your head and you are like the earth and the sun.

It looks like the sun is circling earth but it’s the other way around.

You should be controlling your thoughts not the other way around.

[Karo Wanner | 💫 Mindful Monday @MindGarden6]

Look at people as struggling rather than mistreating you.

A mindfulness lesson from my 18-month-old toddler.

Yesterday before falling asleep he said:

Levi also doctor ...helping people

We are all here to serve others. Happiness comes from lifting others.

[Karo Wanner | 💫 Mindful Monday @MindGarden6]

When you are present it’s easier…

…to see other people’s perspectives

…to love

…to be creative

…to be kind and understanding.

All of this is available to you in the NOW.

[Karo Wanner | 💫 Mindful Monday @MindGarden6]

Growth is when your fulfilment comes from within instead of

…buying more things

…watching Netflix

…achieving more and more

…running from one event to the next.

My family recently moved from a 2-room apartment to a newly built 4-room apartment.

I knew before this wouldn’t make us happier.

It’s more convenient but you always get used to what you have — anchoring a new standard.

Quickly you’ll find yourself wanting the next upgrade.

[Karo Wanner | 💫 Mindful Monday @MindGarden6]

Set goals, dream big but don’t wait for them to materialize before you allow yourself to be happy.

As Thich Nhat Hanh says:

You have to realize that happiness is not something you find at the end of the road. You have to understand that it is here now.

[Karo Wanner | 💫 Mindful Monday @MindGarden6]

The more mindful you become, the greater your happiness, your influence and power for good.

[Karo Wanner | 💫 Mindful Monday @MindGarden6]

Are you willing to sit with the uncomfortable feelings to dissolve your pain?

Are you willing to let go of the storyline in your head?

Yes?

Begin your healing journey by looking inward every day.

The Dalai Lama says:

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

It requires lots of inner work and presence.

If your cup is empty it’s no good for anyone!

Then you’re:

less creative, less fun, less patient, more reactive, more tired, more in your head or on your phone.

Being exhausted makes healing impossible.

To be present you need to take care of yourself.

🔔 Sunday Reminder:

Rest more!

Give the world the best of you not what’s left of you!

[Karo Wanner | 💫 Mindful Monday @MindGarden6]

You are sitting in a restaurant over dinner with a friend.

Your friend constantly grabs his/her phone!

That doesn’t mean you are boring it just shows that your friend is unable to be present and has nothing to do with you.

The key to a happy life is not having peace of mind all the time but to know how to find back to peace of mind.
