On a recent trip to Arizona I tried hiking for the first time. Although at home I walk and run daily, hiking proved to be a challenge. The terrain was full of hills, twists, turns and rocks along the way. I noticed as I walked along that all o could focus on was the step I was taking at the moment. I was fully present and focused on what was happening in that moment only. This was so peaceful! I am a self admitted over thinker and tend to ruminate on thoughts when I am stressed or anxious. The power of being present in that moment was blissful. Some facts in the power of presence and why you should aim for more of this in your life:- [ ] Studies show that people who focus on seeking pleasure in the moment are happier than those who are focused on the past. And those that take the time to notice more of the small things and enjoy the simple pleasures of life are happier and often more productive.Thoughts about the past or the future don't cloud the mind, and you feel a deeper, more authentic connection to life and others. By learning to be more present, we can experience life more fully, finding joy in the simple moments and a deeper connection to ourselves and the world aroundThe biggest gift we can each give ourselves is the gift of being present — engaged with life, connected with each other, listening with kindness, staying open-minded, free from worry. Happy Sunday y’all!!!
