Living in the Moment

Because our fast paced world demands so much multi-tasking and technological equipment, it seems that people often find themselves disconnected from what is actually occurring in the space they occupy at any given moment. Not only are people disconnected from their surroundings, they are usually disconnected from their body as well. With so many demands on time and energy, I find it helpful to notice when I am completely disconnected from my surroundings and purposely take a deep breath to reacquaint myself with both my body and physical surroundings. It is difficult to enjoy life when you are not present for it!
