Up with the foxes at 4am, but my insomnia run turned into a nice sit down on a bench in Blackheath. #howtosit
We can't continue to sit forever. We can continue our mindful awareness in every action, in how we walk, talk, and work. In this way, we engage fully in life and are able to bring joy to our relationships and our world.

Countless people bounce about like yo-yos in their busy lives and never have the chance to taste this joy. Don't worry if you don't have hours to dedicate to sitting. A few moments of sitting and conscious breathing can bring great happiness.

When you sit, you are coming back to yourself, to your body, your feelings, your emotions, and your perceptions in order to take care of them. That's good news.

When you sit, you are like a gardener going back to take care of his or her garden. All the plants and animals in the garden benefit from the gardener's return. They are so happy to have the gardener back.

When we sit with others, we profit from the quality of being and we profit from everyone's practice. We don't need to say a lot, but we become a collective organism and together we produce insight.

The first thing to do when you sit down is to pay attention to your in-breath and out-breath. Focus your attention entirely on your breathing. If you truly practice, your breath will become peaceful. This peaceful breathing will soothe both mind & body.

In our daily lives we may get lost in our thinking, in our worries, and in our various projects. To sit is to restore ourselves, to become fully present and fully alive in the here and now.

Even when you think you are sitting alone, your ancestors are sitting with you. Your parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents, whether you knew them or not, are there inside of you. Acknowledge them and invite them to breathe with you.

Sitting isn't something we do as a duty or an obligation. Instead it can be part of our daily nourishment, like eating. Consider daily sitting meditation to be a kind of spiritual food.
@thichnhathanh #HowToSit
If you sit regularly, it will become a habit. You will let go of trying to arrive anywhere. Even the Buddha still practiced sitting every day after his enlightenment. There is nowhere to arrive except the present moment.

Sitting alone is wonderful. Sitting with a friend makes meditation easier. There is a Vietnamese phrase that goes like this: "When you eat rice, you need to have soup." When you practice mindfulness, you have to have friends.

Breathing in, give complete attention to your in-breath. Wherever the breath may be in your body, feel the calm it brings. Feel how the breath cools the inner organs of the body, just like drinking cool water on a hot day.
@thichnhathanh #HowToSit
When you sit, keep your spinal column quite straight, while allowing your body to be relaxed. When your sitting posture is relaxed and stable, you can sit quite comfortably for a long time. You embody solidity and this helps your mind to be calm.

When we sit and listen to the bell, we can allow all the cells in our body to listen to the sound. The mind is also made of something like "cells." These are our thoughts, feelings, and perceptions, and our ideas about how things are and should be.
@thichnhathanh #HowToSit
The sound of the bell is a wonderful way to begin sitting meditation. The sound of the bell is the voice of your own true self, calling you back to the present moment. The beautiful sound reminds us that our true home is in the present moment.
@thichnhathanh #HowToSit
When we're sitting, we're truly in the present moment; we have come home, we have arrived. We are present in that time and place; were not pulled away by the past, the future, or by anger or jealousy in the present.
@thichnhathanh #HowToSit
What is essential is to train to sit quietly and mindfully. The more you train yourself, the more you can reach the deeper aspect of what you are thinking and feeling.
@thichnhathanh #HowToSit
Once we are calm, we can see more clearly. And when our vision is no longer clouded, we see with more understanding, and we naturally begin to feel compassion for ourselves and others. This is when true happiness becomes possible.
