A big part of practicing at home is contentment and appreciation. If we go home and we want to practice like we practice at the retreat, we’re always going to be disappointed.

But if we’re happy for every second we’re mindful, if we’re happy for one out of ten days we’re mindful, if we’re happy for one moment we’re mindful and appreciate it, we’re going to grow the awareness.

If we don’t appreciate the awareness, we won’t grow it.
