“Learning to pause is the first step in the practice of Radical Acceptance … We may pause in the midst of meditation to let go of thoughts and reawaken our attention to the breath. We may pause by stepping out of daily life to go on a retreat or to spend time in nature or to take a sabbatical. . . . You might try it now: Stop reading and sit there, doing no thing, and simply notice what you are experiencing.” – Tara Brach, from “Radical Acceptance”
