“We cannot breathe for ourselves in the past and we cannot breathe for ourselves in the future, so it is the breath that really allows us to be in the present moment.” — the Zen Mommy [0:01:07]

“It is not about stopping the thoughts. There are about 80 000 thoughts that come into our minds everyday. It’s impossible to stop them. It’s about recognizing where the mind goes when it wonders, and what our mind’s tendencies are.” — the Zen Mommy [0:01:49]
