Tribe Of Mentors

I regularly read books with a notepad at the ready. A dumping ground for little pearls of wisdom, references to other material, and ideas spawned that happen while reading the book. After finishing Tribe of Mentors, I had three pages of notes. It could have easily been ten had I not been conservative with what […]

The Breath

“Feelings come and go like clouds in a windy sky. Conscious breathing is my anchor.” ― Thich Nhat Hanh Reading through Tribe of Mentors, it’s been noteworthy of how many of the interviewees in the book lean on meditative practices that focus on breathing techniques.
