There is so much going on in our lives and we are busy people. On top of our daily responsibilities, there is the current worry for some of job layoffs, mortgages, financial challenges, etc. We tend to dwell on the past and worry about the future which can cause fear, stress and anxiety.

Take a moment and be present. Be fully focused on what you are doing in that moment. Whatever you are doing… a task for work, doing the laundry, making a plan for the future, sharing a meal with someone, be completely present in the experience. Take a deep breath to get you in the moment.

When you are present, there is less worry about what the future will bring or what you did/didn’t do in the past. You are engaged in what is in front of you and in all the experience has to offer. Do this as often as possible and you will have more moments of peace.
