- My mom.
- Mindfulness has taught me to be much more accepting, much more calm, and trusting with love.
- Breathing is rhythm. I practice breathing very deeply in the mountains and in nature. Connecting with nature is part of my meditation practice. Breathing is a core component of that.

- There's a story where Pemba's best friend, who is Indigenous, her mother said to me, nobody has ever truly seen my daughter as Pemba sees me daughter. That's a deeper level of mindfulness that they're cultivating [in Nepal].
- In Nepal, we went to this one little monastery and Karma and Pemba approached the shrine and very intentionally put their hands to their forehead, to their lips, and then to their heart, while uttering a Tibetan mantra that means ‘homage to the Buddha', which they consider my highest self.
- Homage to the teachings, wisdom that has come before, and homage to the community, the interconnectedness of all things. That's the level of mindfulness they're operating from.
