Taking time to reflect or to simply be “in the moment” can not only create calm, it can promote understanding, compassion and forgiveness.

Meditating
Try this: sit down quietly somewhere, take three, deep, slow, even breaths, pausing briefly at the inhale, and again after exhaling. If you have more time, take more slow easy breaths. Controlled deep breathing helps us to relax and oxygenates our system. It will improve both looks and energy levels, while calming the nervous system.If more people would try to understand the power of breath, they would make a conscious effort to change their breathing habits. If more people would change their breathing habits, there would be less sickness, more happiness, and more wealth and prosperity on the planet. One cannot breathe deeply, relax, and still feel fear, anger, or other stressful emotions. If you change the way that you breathe, you can change the moment you are in, and that change becomes the next step in your life. If you try deep, slow breathing on a regular basis, a transformation process will automatically begin. At first, the changes are imperceptible. With practice, however, the changes will be like a rebirth through a subtle purification of your body, mind, and speech.

Negatives
Negative conditions are spiritual teachers;
Spirits and demons are emanations of conquerors;
Sickness is a broom sweeping away defilements and obscurations
All sufferings are dharmata's waves.

Jumbo-Jet
"Following the flight path of all the conquerors of the three times,
The jumbo-jet of relative and ultimate bodhicitta
Soars through the sky on the wings of the two accumulations
And lands smoothly, with no delays, at the four kayas airport."
Khenchen Konchog Gyaltshen Rinpoche

Being
Being is complete in itself. That is the nature of transcendental wisdom. Our being is a mystical sacrament, it is the mysterious and sacred grace of the present moment. It has been around a lot longer than churches and religions. It is not our personal being, but being itself. It is in all living beings.

Cynicism
Cynicism closes the possibilities and the channels of life. It shrivels the soul.
