My oldest daughter is getting married this weekend! It has been months of planning and looking ahead, but this week I just want to be present, enjoy all the moments and not think about what is next! (High School graduation for my next daughter )
I’m sure you’ve heard the expression “Stay present” and you might be saying “That sounds great, but HOW do I do that?”
Here are a few ways that I’ve discovered…
Tips for living in the moment:
- Notice your surroundings using your five senses
- Monotask, stay mindful on just one thing you are doing
- Practice deep breathing/Meditate
- Think about things you are grateful for right now
- Don’t get stuck in worry (it’s always about the future)
- Repeat a present tense affirmation (an “I am” statement, i.e. I am here to enjoy this moment with my daughter)
I challenge you to pick one of these tips to try out this week; I think you will feel a difference!!
