"Our daily practice consists of running away. If we have a moment free, we will make use of it to watch television or read a magazine article so we will not have to go back to our territory. We are afraid of the suffering that is inside us. Afraid of war and conflicts.  
The practice of mindfulness consists of coming back to ourselves in order to restore peace and harmony. The energy with which we can do this is the energy of mindfulness. Mindfulness if a kind of energy that carries with it concentration, understanding, love. 
...mindfulness is not something that is only done in a meditation hall. It is also done in the kitchen, in the garden, when we are on the telephone, when we are driving a car, when we are doing the dishes."
