This letter really spoke to me. I have been struggling with expectations regarding meditation, and getting frustrated when it would not go "right." I'm just now beginning to realize and accept that it's about those moments when you can let go and come back to attention and stillness. Cultivating that patience with yourself to come back to the present is really key!
Paul, it's so wonderful to hear from you. And I hear ya! We all need that kick in the butt to return to the cushion now and then. My hope is that you can make it to Kripalu one day - would love to see you.

I get it! Eventually you realize that just doing the practice IS getting it right and the results show up off the cushion.😊
Thank you, as always. It is so interesting.You always manage to write about some things that are either on my mind or where I am at right now.
Cathy, thank you! So glad my words are connecting with you.
WOW!! So many nuggets of inspiration are woven into this Substack!
