To break with the norm means to first start a revolution within your own mind. A true revolutionary is someone who breaks down the rigid power structures and egoic defences within through practising mindfulness and awareness training and through love and compassion.
When practising mindfulness , we cultivate and strengthen awareness enough to take a step back and not merely react. With mindful awareness , we can insert a gap or a pause between us and what we experience so that we are no longer carried away by our reactive patterns. In that little gap, there exist the freedom to respond in a fresh and less predetermined way.
