From the writings

“Fear is a signal, not a sentence.”

“There is no schedule you are failing to meet.”

“The practice is not in never missing. It is in the returning.”

“Rest is not the absence of work. It is part of the work.”

“There is a room inside you that no one else can enter.”

“Whatever you are trying to solve tonight will look different after sleep.”
