Brush your teeth in such a way that freedom and joy are possible, not allowing yourself to be carried away by concerns about what you will do after you are done. Eat every morsel of your breakfast like that, not allowing yourself to be carried away from the experience of eating. You chew mindfully and you know that you are chewing the bread, the wonderful nourishment of life. And when you put the piece of bread into your mouth, chew only your bread and not your projects, worries, fears, or anger. ![]()
