Mindfulness. Presence. Being in the Moment.
All three essentially mean the same thing – and they can be a powerful ally in your emotional and relationship health. It’s a practice, a reconditioning and training of your brain that can be done in meditation – or in every day life simply bringing your attention to things you might normally miss.
Some of the ways being “present” can help you:
- Decrease stress
- Increase clarity and focus
- Take attention away from the future worry of anxiety
- Take attention away from the past sadness of depression
- Bring your attention to the beauty around you
- Enhance communication in your relationships
- Increase resilience
- Decrease emotional reactivity
- Find inner peace
