Travel well, Venerable One. Thank you for the plentiful seeds of goodness you’ve planted in this world. I think of you & your teachings often, especially when doing dishes. “Breathing in, I relax my mind. Breathing out, I relax my body.”

The International Plum Village Community of Engaged Buddhism announces that our beloved teacher Thich Nhat Hanh has passed away peacefully at Từ Hiếu Temple in Huế, Vietnam, at 00:00hrs on 22nd January, 2022, at the age of 95. We invite our global spiritual family to take a few moments to be still, to come back to our mindful breathing, as we together hold Thay in our hearts in peace and loving gratitude for all he has offered the world.
More official news will be coming shortly.

"We are in a time of deconstruction. But we also have to remember that every deconstruction is an opportunity for reconstruction. We must ask ourselves, what is it we want to reconstruct and how do we go about it?" -Larry Ward

In the New Testament, the four horsemen signal the end of all things, but in Buddhism, every ending is also a beginning.

After fifteen years of teaching yoga, and one year of teaching yoga online to employees at Austin Community College, as part of ACC's Wellness program, I’ve seen firsthand how helpful virtual classes can be in helping people deal with the ever present stresses of living in a pandemic. This virtual journey has been very different but also very rewarding for me and my students. It has become more important than ever to make time for consistent self care. Yoga offers self care for our bodies, minds and spirits through stretching and movement all while focusing on the breath. So…I’ve decided to brave up, branch out and offer classes to anyone who may be curious and/or benefit.
🎉 I'm excited to announce I’m starting a weekly yoga class on Zoom! 🧘🏼‍♀️
FIRST CLASS WEDNESDAY MARCH 3RD @ 10AM.
****** Send me a PM and I'll send you the Zoom link. *****

Sharon Salzberg:
If you prepare something like a cup of tea, you can use it as a time of meditation. First, observe the cup color, shape. Put your hands around the teacup. Feel the warmth. You can smell the tea. Lift the cup, take a sip. You can taste the tea. You can feel the warmth as you swallow. You may notice many judgments come up in your time. "I chose the wrong tea. I drink too much tea." Whatever it might be, you can allow them to come and to go. Simply return to the actual direct experience in the moment just now. Then, the next sip.

How many times do we do something where we're just disconnected, we're not even really there? How many times do we go along on automatic pilot without awareness of our moment-to-moment experience? We're drinking a cup of tea, reading the newspaper, checking our email, having a conversation, listening to the radio, all at the same time. Where is the taste of that tea?
