When the phone rings

October 24, 2015 / Marjorie Larner / What We Can Do

Thich Nhat Hanh the Vietnamese Zen Monk urges us to find ways to breathe in silence even for a second throughout our days. He suggests that when the phone rings, instead of being annoyed at the interruption, think of it as a reminder to breathe. So, I stop before I press the button and  take a breath. Then I say hello to whatever is to come.
