We can learn throughout our lives to savor the moment. We can get more out of right now.
Excerpts from the Book:
Ironically, the present is the only thing we can control.

Each moment is all we really have. It is important to learn from the past, but it is also important to not let it distract and take energy from the present. In short, if you worry too much about the future, your anxiety can impact the decisions you make today.

Take time to enjoy the moment. • Enjoy the meal. Interact face-to-face with those you care about.
• Another exercise is to take a long breath through your nostrils. Hold it for a few seconds then pucker your lips and exhale as slowly as you can.
• One way to slow down a hectic moment is to focus on your breathing.

If we take a few moments each day to do these simple breathing exercises,
we can train ourselves to relax, focus and enjoy the moment.

“Walking awareness”“Walking awareness” is another way of re-centering ourselves. Notice each step you take. Focus on your step, your stride. Focus on the way you hold your shoulders and bend your knees. Be mindful of your every movement. Relax. Breathe.
These are simple ways of bringing yourself back into the moment. It can be almost magical when we truly focus on the moment.
