Dan Harris Meditation Quotations

What meditation does is allow you to actually survive these emotions as opposed to compartmentalizing and having them come up and make you a shithead in other areas of your life. The alternative is to be miserable, and I don't think we're living in a wise way when we do that.

The getting lost and recovering - that is the meditation.

Meditation is hard. You are constantly trying to focus on one thing, usually your breath, and your mind is going to go berserk.

Meditation suffers from a towering PR problem.… If you can get past the cultural baggage, though, what you’ll find is that meditation is simply exercise for your brain.

Meditation is just simple brain exercise. I exercise and this made sense to me.
