“Mindfulness is so closely linked with equanimity because it directly teaches you to take the middle path — to not resist or cling to things, and to not just let things happen to you willy-nilly. You quite literally train yourself to notice and reflect before responding, and as a result, your behaviours become reasoned, conscious responses.”
— Chris LuVogt (via spirituallyminded)
“A dream is a small hidden door in the deepest and most intimate sanctum of the soul, which opens up to that primeval cosmic night that was the soul, long before there was the conscious ego.”
— Carl Jung (via spirituallyminded)
“Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.”
— Marcus Aurelius
