Living in the present moment whenever we want is healthy not only for the mind, but also for the body. It recharges our batteries. It brings joy and deep relaxation. It allows us to see a wider perspective on whatever is happening. It helps reduce the grasping at me, me, me. It opens the heart to concern for others. With a little nudge, it even opens doors to understanding that nothing is real as is appears. Everything is relative and changing.
