Reading MKE and GS has me observing which emotions I entertain, and considering why I might want to keep some and substitute others. I’ve resumed Tai-chi in my mornings, along with reading and sitting for 15 minutes. What used to seem like a long time sitting has become a pleasure for me, even when my mind takes it’s invariable side trips. The new habit of substituting pleasant thoughts for negative ones requires MUCH more attention and stillness than I normally practice. And continuing the habit of not offering my judgement is easier than not HAVING a judgement!

I really like that..”not offering my judgement is much easier than not having a judgement.”
