“When you're mindful, you're actively drawing distinctions, noticing new things.[This is] the essence of having fun.”
   --Dr. Ellen Langer, Harvard professor and author, The Power of Mindful Learning

"I can hardly express my delight in having discovered Maya and her work.  Her fresh and fun approach to mindfullness has made a world of difference in my personal life as well as in that of my students. You'll be amazed at the simple elegance she brings to this deep and ancient practice."

It's just hard to REMEMBER to be mindful! And it really helps to have some built-in alarm clocks all around you.
