Episode Notes

Hello to you listening in Wellington, New Zealand!

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is 60 Seconds for Time Out Tuesday.

I was talking with my friend and story colleague, Sarah Elkins when the topic of Anger came up. I mentioned a 60 Seconds episode about having lived some of my life feeling like a hammer – when you’re a hammer everything looks like a nail.

Sarah asked me when that way of being had stopped. There is no date certain. The experience is much like watching paint dry or grass grow; you know it’s happening but the shift is infinitesimal. However, I can say that after being introduced to Thich Nhat Hanh, his teachings and Deer Park Monastery as well as walking the Camino de Santiago as a pilgrim my life was never the same.

Practical Tip: “You know what to do to look more beautiful. You don’t need any cosmetics.  You need only to breathe peacefully, calmly and smile mindfully. If you can do that one or two times a day, you will look much better. See yourself in the mirror: breathing in calmly, breathing out smiling – you will feel relief.” Thich Nhat Hanh [Anger: Wisdom for Cooling the Flames]
