Enlightening Moments. Living Beyond the Frustration Cycle. Gary & Radha Bello

I'm Waiting. Fading. Floating Away.

Enlightening Moments. Living Beyond the Frustration Cycle. Gary & Radha Bello. 2011. ISBN  9780615526621.  I was introduced to Gary and his work by a mutual friend. After sitting with them for a few hours I was very intrigued by his views on life and living. Our meeting had to do with the present interest in Mindfulness in home and workplace. Gary has been helping people become more aware his whole life.  And Mindfulness is seeking to become more aware.  After our meeting Gary presented me with this book. It took me awhile to get to the thin but powerful book but I am glad I did. First he helped me see the difference between between aware of a situation vs reacting to it. Awareness allows you to surf the wave of the situation and come though it in a state of control and well being. Reacting leads to frustration, distracting and issue related behaviors.  Most of us are reacting. And let me say reacting does not work.  I also appreciated his weaving in of mediation and reflection in small doses/activities that really worked for me.  I am passing this book onto my sons as I feel it will be very valuable to them as much as it was to me.
