“Stress is caused by being ‘here’ but wanting to be ‘there’“- Eckhart Tolle.
I am actually just going to leave this with you to ponder on, but I will give you a clue….
How much of your waking day do you truly spend living in ‘THE NOW’?
Just notice yourself this week, notice your mind wondering, worrying about something that happened last week (there), and worrying about something that is going to happen in the future (there). All the while really missing what is going on RIGHT NOW (Here).
What proportion of your time is spent HERE…NOW…in the PRESENT?
Notice, notice notice.
No judgement, just awareness.
Hi Sally.
This truly resonates to myself. I feel myself thinking of the what ifs….. then I try to think of everything that I have around me to be grateful for.. my health family and just being able to walk outside in the fresh air.
Time goes so quickly and we gotta stop sometimes and take in our life that we have and to be more kind to ourselves as we only got 1 body and we need to look after it and our mind.
Simple steps can be Big steps in so many ways .
Thanks for your words and a wee look into Simon’s world from his email.
Keep being you Sally. Keep being present in the now. 🥰
Thanks again
Trudie
