Healthy Living - Living In The Moment

It is the weekend and time to reflect upon living a healthy life.  We've talked about eating right and walking but this week I have been thinking about how important it is to live in the moment.  So often we think of the past or worry about the future and forget to enjoy the present moment.  This week I had some extra time and I started to think about where I could go, what I could do or who I could call and then I reminded myself to slow down and take a breath.  At the same time I did that I looked out the window and really saw the flowers I had planted earlier in the spring.  They were beautiful and I really hadn't taken the time to enjoy them.  So often we rush through the day forgetting to take a breath, or forgetting to look around us and see all that we have accomplished.  I am not a gardener but I wanted to have beautiful flowers this year.  So I took the time to buy some plants, actually plant them, water them and pull the weeds and now  the flower  boxes are really starting to bloom.  Since I reminded myself to appreciate the flowers, I have looked at them everyday and enjoyed the beauty they bring to the back deck.  So this week remember to eat right and excercise more but also remember to take time to appreciate and enjoy each and every moment.  I would love to hear about a special moment where you stopped, took a breath, and really appreciated and enjoyed something very special that you might have easily overlooked.

Great post....this is a issue for me, as you know. Having just spent an overnight with my toddler grandson, I have to say my grandbabies help me appreciate every moment. They are so fully present and engaged with the world--their joy is contagious!

Hi,

Thanks for this lovely reminder to take time and slow down. Life moves so fast and we often miss it because we are swept up.
