Being Present. Right Here. Right Now

Hi Reader,

What first comes to mind when I talk about presence?

I think it's safe to say that depending on how you incorporate mindfulness practices into your life, this might not even have crossed your mind. Too much noise outside in the world!

Today, I pulled some cards, looking for guidance for the day, and this is where I came upon:

This part really got me to ponder how many times we miss the big picture because we are busy with things that sometimes (or a lot of times) don't even matter? Or we get worried, or fearful, or judgmental, based on unfounded ideas or misconceptions we pick up on our trail?

As a recovery overthinker, I know how it feels. You never think you need a moment of respite until you really do (or the universe makes you take a "vacation" anyway).

But what if we take a time to simply be here and now? No pressure. Just present. A moment of quiet space just to be. But then comes the challenge. How?

I, for example, thought I was an example of presence...until I took a course of Eckhart Tolle and one of the lessons was just sit to have my meals fully present. By that I mean, no distractions whatsoever. No TV, no cellphone. Nothing. Just you and your meal, savoring every aspect of it in the present moment.

It was a real test! But at the same token, it was liberating.

And it's this type of presence that I invite you to today, as I share our post on 10 mindfulness practices that can help you be present, improve your meditation, and boost your well-being.

And, please let me know what you think. Actually, reply back and let me know which one of those is your favorite. Or, perhaps, if there is any missing from the list you want to recommend.
