Living in the here and now – in the present – is the key to living more intensely and experiencing moments more intensely. Today, in the age of the Internet and new technologies, it is difficult for us to perceive every single moment attentively. We are constantly distracted by our cell phone, TV or iPad.
Yet it is precisely this moment in the here and now in which we can really “live”, decide things, direct and shape our lives and set the mood of our everyday life. Only in the NOW can we change things in our lives and take the threads into our own hands.
The obligations we have today sometimes make everyday life seem very gray. We rush from one place to the next, are under pressure to be on time and to think of everything. Nevertheless, it helps to take a step back in such moments: What really counts are the loved ones around me.
Enjoying more relaxation in everyday life has a positive effect on our mind, but also on our environment. A loving and happy atmosphere contributes to the well-being and security of all. Thus, lightness can flow back into everyday life and with it creativity and positive thinking. That is why the here & now is so important. But it also plays a very special role in our interpersonal relationships. What attention do we pay to the person we are communicating with? Are we really concentrated? Are we listening to our counterpart? But it is not only listening that plays a role. Do we fully perceive the energy of our counterpart?
This is only possible in the here & now. The past is dead. The future is not yet present. Only in the NOW can we act.
All the more important to let love flow into everything we do. Only with love, patience and attention can we create magical intense moments in our lives.
Since it is not always easy to maintain this basic mood continuously, you will find here a few ideas for ceremonies, meditations, incense but also design of their own four walls and decoration, or just moods and inspirations I want to share with you.
Have fun with it!
