Shifting Gears: Moment’s Peace Inspiration #16

Shifting Gears

Shift the gears from feeling pressured to perform and step into a new world, one fresh with subtle but powerful awareness in the present moment. Everyday life is chock-full of opportunity to live with mindfulness.

Imagine life filled with blissful moments—for me, that can be as simple as noticing as the humidity lifts and I breathe in fresh, crisp air, or maybe it’s truly enjoying my aromatic and flavorful lunchtime noodle salad. What I call “present moment” or mindfulness is really a simple 3,000-year-old Zen practice that is also referred to as mindfulness meditation, and it is a valuable gift you can give yourself.
