When was the last time you allowed yourself to do nothing more than sit in solitude in a quiet room? To forget your to-do list and fully enjoy a cup of your favorite tea? To give your body and your breath your complete attention? To watch the clouds slowly drift across the sky? While none of these activities may seem particularly special on the surface, they each have the potential to radically change your life—to take you out of a compulsive stream of thinking, planning, and stressing and into the depths of the present moment. |
