Presence

Over the last few weeks, I've been thinking a lot about presence. I've been working on becoming more present for the last couple of years with the aid of meditation and yoga. These practices help me with my awareness. If I'm more aware, then I can notice when I'm focusing too much on the past... on things I should've done, I could've done, or would've done. When I am present to each unfolding moment, I can let go of the past but also let go of my focus on the future... on what I'm going to do, how I'm going to do it, or when I'm going to do it.

Being present to me is freeing and allows me to slow down and enjoy each moment of my life more fully.

How do you practice presence?
