Being Present


In a Mindful Presence Training session recently, I asked the group what they were looking for or what they expected from the training. 

75% answered "to feel good". 

Psychologists inform us that a lot of what we call negative emotions happen when we live in our head and focus on past or the future. These experts claim that if we focus on the present  we can't hold onto these emotions. Consequently if we focus on the present we will feel good.

LIving in the NOW -Mindfulness


When you are full of problems, there is no room for anything new to enter, no room for a solution. So whenever you can, make some room, create some space, so that you find the life underneath your life situation

Use your sense fully. Be where you are. Look around. Just look, don’t interpret. See the light, shapes, colours, textures. Be aware of the silent presence of each thing. Be aware of the space that allows everything to be. Listen to the sounds: don’t judge them. Listen to the silence underneath the sounds. Touch something – anything – and feel and acknowledge its Being. Observe the rhythm of your breathing: feel the air flowing in and out. Feel the life energy inside your body. Allow everything to be, within, and without. Allow the “isness” of all things. Move deeply into the Now.
Tolle; "The Power of Now"
