One habit energy.

Inspired by brother Pháp Hữu, I shine the light of mindfulness onto my daily habit energy. Let us choose only one habit energy to transform in this year, and let the miracles of its transformation trickles into all other aspects of life.

My one habit energy to transform

I see my tendency to "perfect" things and this energy expresses in my sometimes busy schedule, exhaustive goals, emotionally fatiguing choices, and absurdly complicated projects that drain my peace and contentment. Many times, I was crushed because I had set myself to do more than I was capable of.

I aspire to keep my days simple and stay honest about my limitations. When the urge to overextend arises, may I breathe in humility and the clarity to say No. I will kiss you, my fear of not being enough, of humiliation, of being boring, and of falling behind in life. May my dreams and visions reflect my vibrant heart while my execution be kind and consistent. May my aim be gentleness every step of the way for the infinite game that I am in, not the temporary wins and glories. Simplify, stabilize, ease the path.


In the course of healing any negative mental formations within myself, I know I am easing the fears of my culture, communities, and ancestors. When my effort for healing is then read, seen, recognized by you, you are allowing me to flower my aspirations onto your consciousness. So thank you for letting me join you in your soul path journey. I am hungry to be fed by you, too.
