Dear Lisa,
In my case,if an event ,or a series of events disturb me.like today again another shooting.
I Take Refuge ,repeating it 3 times,with half a smile on my face.
Most of the time,after the first Taking Refuge,I am back in the
Now.Present moment,Mindfulness.
I do beleive,that whatever system used,changing one's thoughts.
brings back the individual to Now.
With respect
loong
son of the Universe
