Concentration and Mindfulness | April 2, 2015


Off the cushion, hours can pass as we sit rapt by movies, cat videos, Angry Birds, and the Kardashians. Every once in a while, these lazy afternoons happen to the best of us. But by bringing together concentration and mindfulness, we’re less likely to indulge in such passive activities and more likely to remain alert when taking part in active ones.

- Roshi Bodhin Kjolhede, "Don't Just Sit There"
