Even if it is a difficult moment, being present and aware of the now is a cultivated skill in our society. Pay attention to your breath, to what you are doing (literally), to how you feel about what you are doing. Be mindful of everything that you do (at work, while driving, loading the dishwasher….). You will find that you appreciate your life more, even the hard parts. Remember that “today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday.” All the time that we actually have is NOW—THIS BREATH, not this day or this hour, but THIS MOMENT.
