Sure, mindfulness sounds great when life is good and things are going your way. But what about when your life stinks? Mindfulness can be great then too. You just need to know a few things. That's what I hope to break down here because preaching to the choir gets old. These things have helped me a great deal and I hope they help you too.

Explore the fleeting moments of life in this collection of introspective poems, capturing various thoughts from every journey. Let me share some stories through poetry.

Life unravels in mysterious, beautiful ways, and unless life's beauties frolic on golden paper, they shall be forgotten.

By doing this one thing: CHOOSING, you'll find that the Universe (the infiniteness of you) really has nothing else better to do than reflect back to you your choices.

All about me, the author! Funny scenarios, life advice, and more! Yes, I do take requests. Trigger warnings will be listed before every chapter, please take the time to read them.

A back to basics primer for modern coping in a many-screened world. Each chapter fleshes out a skill or idea that you can test-drive in your daily life to hang on, get through, and keep it together. A huge thank you to @Claaau for the amazing cover graphics!

In a world where everyone chases the obvious, I ran toward the sun - warmth, brilliance, and promise. But the night whispered differently. Its quiet, gentle light showed me that peace and beauty exist even where we least expect them. A story about chasing, noticing, and discovering the subtle light in every moment. Sometimes, the answers we seek aren't in the brightness we pursue, but in the quiet we overlook.

This is a collection of poems that I've written, and each chapter is a new poem. Be on the lookout for my next project- SOAP (song and poem).

by Dr. Linda Miles How Mindfulness Helped Me Through Serious Illness Even though I'd been practicing mindfulness for many years prior to my illness, its power became especially clear to me 15 years ago, when I was struck with a virulent strain of pneumonia. As I waited for yet another daily chest x-ray during my seventh day in the hospital, I knew I was dying. My husband is a doctor, and although he couldn't bring himself to tell me the prognosis, I could read the signs. I felt my consciousness fading as my body began shutting down. I also overheard a conversation among the medical professionals working on me about my kidney failure, lack of oxygen, and the alarming blood work results they had just received. Although my body was crashing, I felt a sense of inner peace and gratitude for my life. Fortunately, I was only 51 years old and had maintained good health prior to this point. It was a long struggle, but I eventually recovered. Despite the medical crisis, I maintained a mental state of inner peace and calmness during most of my illness. Using a practice of mindfulness, I was able to accept the seriousness of my illness while finding the strength to overcome it. My practice of mindfulness prepared me to accept what was real in the present moment and refrain from comparing myself to those who were healthy and productive. I learned that when I compared myself to people who I had set up as the "ideal," I rejected myself. I believe that my practice helped save my life because I avoided situational anxiety and instead was able to concentrate on healing. While I was able to accept my state with calmness, do not confuse acceptance with giving up. It is often the opposite. My acceptance of my infirmity saved my energy so I could meet my situation head-on. As John Kabat-Zinn writes, "You can't stop the waves but you can learn to surf."

A book of my poetry no matter the mood that I am. So take it or leave it, I mean you don't have to read it if you don't want to.

This book offers a deep dive into the paradoxical nature of pride - how it can both corrupt and motivate us. This philosophical and psychological examination reveals the complexities of pride as a universal human trait that has been viewed as a sin across many wisdom traditions. The book explores the genesis of pride in our desire for status and esteem. It distinguishes healthy pride from destructive hubris fueled by inner fragility rather than authentic accomplishment. Excessive pride is shown to damage relationships, impede growth, and prevent living fully. Yet pride also imparts drive and inspiration if held consciously. The book provides insights from psychology, spirituality, and contemporary culture on integrating pride with ethics and humility. It offers perspectives on pride from diverse sources - from ancient parables to redemption stories showing recovery after pride's fall. Ultimately, it aims to illuminate the nuanced role of pride in our lives. It calls us to cultivate virtuous pride animate

We all struggle... We all have second thoughts about ourselves... We all have doubts and hopes... We all search for meanings... Some of us dare to create new ones! We all desire the passionate and consuming love! We all wanna be accepted, loved and desired! We all wanna be seen! And... We're all afraid of who we really are! What scares us the most is the things we desire the most! This is not a 'how to' book! Rather this is a 'how to JUST BE' guide. I'm not here to tell ! I'm here to listen to the silence ! And let you know what I hear! Cause most of the time silence of a person speaks louder than words! Just select a title and read! And whilst reading listen to yourself! Your silence will be the answer you've been looking for!

A reflective poem about the power of mindfulness and the importance of finding inner peace.
