Thom Walters: Finding the Zen

 

 

“Meditation, at its core, goes against the very nature of society.” 

 

“Society never says just sit, just turn inward.”

 

“All thoughts are made up.”

 

“If we just stop and look at them and say, okay, it’s a thought. and just look at it very objectively, it kind of loses its power.”

 

“If thoughts are ephemeral, they’re not tangible, they’re not meaningful, they’re just thoughts. What is real?”

 

“Life is beautiful. If you get out of your own way, if you stop running from thoughts, stop embracing fear and fearful circumstances, stop embracing beliefs that aren’t real.”

Bump in the Road

Everyone hits a bump in the road. The question becomes: What do you do with it?

I share stories about how people experience, manage and navigate life's bumps, hopefully using them as a pivot into a more conscious and meaningful life.
