Yogi: I have a problem at home and will probably struggle with it when I go back.

My parents are old and frail – mom is sick in a nursing home and dad who gives me a hard time is suffering because he’s not allowed to visit her.

I feel for him, but have mixed feelings helping him. What would be a wise way to deal with this?

Sayadaw: Daily life practice is challenging but interesting because there are no fixed solutions.

You have to be creative; it’s not only mindfulness because you have to think how to approach things. You have to strategize and after that, do a postmortem of what works and what doesn’t.
