My teacher

“We should not be afraid of suffering. We should be afraid of only one thing, and that is not knowing how to deal with our suffering. Handling our suffering is an art. If we know how to suffer, we suffer much less, and we’re no longer afraid of being overwhelmed by the suffering inside. The energy of mindfulness helps us recognize, acknowledge, and embrace the presence of the suffering, which can already bring some calm and relief.”
-Thich Nhat Hanh (The Art of Living)

"The ones who cause suffering must also become the objects of your love. They are the product of an unstable society, and they need our help."

-Thich Nhat Hanh, Touching Peace

"Don’t run away from things that are unpleasant in order to embrace things that are pleasant. Put your hands in the earth. Face the difficulties and grow new happiness."

I often teach my clients the importance of letting go. What we focus on is what we feel. This deep understanding helps them bloom into who they can become.
