This site is intended to be a basic reference for mindfulness, meditation, and Buddhism. It was originally created as an easily accessible, portable reference based on notes I made related to mindfulness, meditation, and Buddhism. Over time, I added new sections to cover more topics. These notes are basic overviews, and there are many resources out there to explore everything here in much more depth if you are so led.
This site is not intended to provide psychiatric or medical advice (read website disclaimer) nor is it intended to "convert" anyone to Buddhism or to any ideology. Rather, the intent is to share ideas and practices that facilitate looking inward, navigating this thing we call "life,” and understanding and alleviating “suffering,” regardless of whether one is religious or areligious.
Some material here is verbatim from the references listed or linked resources. I am grateful to all those who have shared their experiences and understanding via books, articles, podcasts, videos, websites, lectures, etc. I apologize for any errors, omissions, faulty links, etc.
We all have our journeys, and if yours has led you here, for whatever reason, may you learn something and benefit in some way. There is a saying "come and try, see for yourself." Give mindfulness and meditation a try, and simply discard them if they aren't beneficial.
