Moment of Bunniness: Eva

Thanks again to the House Rabbit Connection for today’s moment of bunniness.

This is the lovely Eva, taking time out of her busy day to prepare her mind and spirit for whatever tomorrow has in store.

During this exciting season of giving, Eva has come to remind us that we can’t forget to take some time for ourselves. If all we do is tend to others, we will lose track of our own bunny center.

Don’t forget to give yourself some space this holiday season–be just as good to yourself as you are to the bunnies around you!

Moment of Bunniness: Bungie

Check out the special Bunny Buddhism Holiday Book Offer, available this weekend for four days only!

Ashley tells me Bungie’s life motto is: “Just chill. And when in doubt, pretend to be part of the stuffed toys.”

Well, Bungie, that sure sounds like some Zen-like bunniness to me. Thanks so much for sharing your bunny wisdom with us!

Moment of Bunniness: Kokomo

Once again, we have the House Rabbit Connection to thank for today’s moment of bunniness. This is Kokomo in the midst of a tiny hop, just coming a bit closer to share a message of kindness.

Especially as we approach the holiday season, I thought Kokomo’s pic might be a good one to remind us that we all encounter frustrations in our lives, but that is no reason to abandon our commitment to kindness. Kindness begins with each of us!

Moment of Bunniness: Julian

Today’s beautiful moment of bunniness comes to us from the good people at the House Rabbit Connection, who work tirelessly to help bunnies in Massachusetts and Connecticut find safe, healthy, and loving forever homes.

This is one very sleepy bun named Julian with a reminder that we must first learn to focus on peaceful thoughts, and then all of our moments both waking and sleeping will be peaceful and happy in turn.

May you sleep peacefully, Julian, and may your message of peace and happiness reach those who need it most.

Moment of Bunniness: Luna

Thank you to Courtney W. and her beautiful bun, Luna, for today’s moment of bunniness. Be sure to check out Courtney on IG and YouTube for beauty, fashion, food, travel, and the occasional glimpse of Luna!

I love this bunny quote because I am very much at the beginning of my own journey into the unknown, and the look of quiet anticipation on Luna’s face inspires me to be calm as I try to approach my new path with curiosity and openness.

Thank you, Luna, for sharing your experience of bunniness for the benefit of all beings!

Moment of Bunniness: Bruce

Today’s feature bun, Bruce, was a rescue bunny who had two homes before his foster home, and only after that did he find his forever home with Jennie R. Now, Jennie tells me Bruce is “a much loved happy house rabbit” and it sounds like they both continue to benefit from having found one another at just the right time in their lives.

Big bunny thanks to Jennie for the beautiful photo. Thanks also to Bruce for the reminder that life encompasses many things and that patience is crucial because bunniness can be found at any moment along the way.

In Memoriam: Zooky

Today’s post is a special one to celebrate the long and joyful life of a Bunny Buddhism bun who recently earned his angel wings. Many of you may remember Zooky as the featured Facebook quote photo bun on book release day (April 1, 2014). Here’s a special reprise of his original photo, with thanks to Bryan and Allison G.

To Bryan and Allison, I can only say my thoughts are with you. I hope in time you will find your way through the pain of loss and recall with a smile the many peaceful, wall-staring moments of wisdom and bunniness that Zooky brought into your lives. And, to help you on your way to remembering the happy moments, here’s a holiday pic of Dr. Zooky looking his Halloween best!

Moment of Bunniness: Dynah

Today’s moment of bunniness comes to us courtesy of Hazel E. and her adventurous bun, Dynah, who was a rescue from the good people at the MSPCA. Hazel tells me she made four trips to the shelter to adopt a kitten, but Dynah just kept popping up with a great big bunny hello every time Hazel walked by.

Well, Hazel and Dynah, I think your story is a perfect example of how we can hop into one another’s lives in the most unexpected ways. I am so glad you found each other and are sharing many moments of joy and bunniness together!
