Practice and Reflection: Addictive Mind
Pick one area of addiction to explore dharmically. The intention is to understand and learn, instead of overcome and eliminate. Reflect on what structure or process would help you pause and be mindful during the activity of addiction. With this mindfulness, notice where the pleasure is with this activity. Notice where the benefit lies. Then notice where the suffering and pain resides.

Practice and Reflection: Mind
This week, bring attention to the fundamental patterns and habits of your mind. These are the ones that underlie many different arenas of our lives. For example: Hungry Mind, Comparing Mind, Controlling Mind, Judging Mind, Inadequate Mind. Practice with these three steps: 1) Stepping back and acknowledging as habit/pattern; 2) Turning toward with compassion and stillness; 3) Seeing as inherently empty.

Practice and Reflection: Habits and Patterns
This week, focus on unconscious habits and patterns, particularly those that create suffering for yourself or others. What seems to trigger a habit or pattern? During or after, pause and observe. Ask: What is here? What is it like? What is the belief? Notice the deeper underlying root of greed, hatred or delusion that the habit or pattern may be expressing.
