Effect on Emotions

• Mindfulness is everything. When I can be more mindful, I can chose how I want to feel.
• And I don't get swept up in emotions that will hurt me or the people I love.

Thoughts on Breathing

• I use breath in everything. I use breath in meditation. when I focus on my breath it allows me to be really present and allows me to get the most out of meditation.

Suggested Resources

• App: Notes on your phone. As thought come to your mind as to how you can help someone or make the world better, record that thought and take action on it.

Bullying Story

• I was in grade 6 and there was a bully who was pointing out my biggest flaw that I was so embarrassed about. I was going into puberty and was beginning to get peach fuzz on my upper lip.
• This bully said I had a mustache and started calling me ‘mustache man'. That was heart-breaking. I would look in the mirror and all I would see was the peach fuzz and I didn't know what to do about it. I felt alone and ugly.
• If I had understood mindfulness at that time it would have changed everything.  I would have been grounded in who I am and understood that I have a divine mission.
