We reach for a loving approach, sometimes stretching beyond “snits,” resentment, and anger. As we practice, we do this for its own sake,

We love stories that inspire us, tales of heroism and miracles. Over the years many of us have heard the story of the neuroscientist, who at age 37 was an expert in the workings of the brain when she experienced a stroke.

As we live actively aware, we are able to notice when habits of thought pop up and start running from inner program we would rather retire. Our attention can assist us—wait a minute—I don’t want to be envisioning problems—despite past experiences, etc. No, let’s shift as we can and go for what is wanted.

Isn’t it great that we are building our knowing of our self-worth! With greater self esteem we can relax more easily when we cannot find an item among our stuff.
