"Chapter 3: Belly-breathing (from page 24) I call this understanding the three speed limits: the physical speed limit, the mental speed limit, and the feeling or energetic speed limit. The body has its own healthy speed, but the feeling world can be rushed in a distorted way. That feeling—of restless, anxious energy—is not healthy. Speedy energy tells us to get there now, even when we can't. Anxiety tells us we're going to die when we aren't."-Daniel Goleman, Why We Meditate: The Science and Practice of Clarity and Compassion
"Chapter 8: a deeper look within (from pages 175-176) Permanence might sound somehow grand and strange—we know in the back of our minds that somehow things aren't actually endless. Yet we forget our bodies are constantly changing, our minds are constantly changing, our mood is changing. Everything is in flow, in transition. The basic building blocks of mind and matter are constantly arising and ceasing, appearing and vanishing, being born and passing away. Reality is more like a sparkling river than a collection of dead objects sitting in space. Emotionally, when we forget about this constant flux, our moods for instance, when things don't go our way, we can feel like our world is ending. But by staying in touch with flux we can have perspective, we can remember, This too shall pass. By internalizing the realization of constant change, we can stay grounded with the ups and downs."-Daniel Goleman, Why We Meditate: The Science and Practice of Clarity and Compassion
