{"quotes":[{"text":"Mindfulness \u0026 Meditation help focus on the moment while at the same time knowing we cannot capture that moment, we are in a flow of moments we let flow. We can watch moments in detail without being attached to them. Non-attachment to past \u0026 future stems from this practice. Worry about past or future is wasted energy, however we can observe the past \u0026 learn from it without agonising over it \u0026 trust ourselves to handle the future better. We can celebrate the opportunity to grow as we gain understanding from observation \u0026 experience. We can watch ourselves \u0026 avoid being caught up in over-reactions. 'I am loved, right now, in this moment, I love, and am part of love itself. I am aware of myself at every level - the mental slowing gracefully to sense the spiritual within \u0026 all around, and the physical being still, or moving. I tune in to the flow of life in my body \u0026 the flow of life everywhere. I circulate love with each breath - from without to within \u0026 from within to all around.","author":"Jay Woodman","tags":["awareness","breath","breathing-in-awareness","energy","experience","flow","life","life-philosophy","life","love","meditation","mental","mindfulness","moment","moment-of-being","moments","moments-of-life","moments","movement","non-attachment","observation","over-reaction","physical","reaction","slow-and-steady","slowing-down","stillness","stillness-of-mind","stillness-of-soul","stillness-of-the-mind"],"id":1489,"author_id":"Jay+Woodman"},{"text":"Ancient lovers believed a kiss would literally unite their souls, because the spirit was said to be carried in one's breath.","author":"Eve Glicksman","tags":["ancient","breath","love","lover","soul","spirit","timeless"],"id":2896,"author_id":"Eve+Glicksman"},{"text":"I wish to spend a lifetime near a lighthouse where loneliness will be the glimmer of luminous prancing upon ocean waves… rising and falling only for my breathing.","author":"Munia Khan","tags":["breath","breathing","glimmer","life","life","lifetime","lifetime","lifetime","lighthouse","lighthouse","lighthouses","loneliness","loneliness","ocean","ocean-waves","oceanic","prancing","rising","spend","spiritual","spirituality","waves","wish"],"id":5542,"author_id":"Munia+Khan"},{"text":"In the end it's not about how many breaths you took.
