Yesterday I was reminded of how even tho’ I know how to sit, be still, meditate .. I seldom actually sit to really be still.. I may sit , yet I am active my mind keeps chattering, I have the telly on, or I’m on my computer.
When I eat .. I am mechanical about what I am doing, I prepare a meal (something to eat) because I know that I’m supposed to be eating at least 3x a day. Then, I will eat as I prepare, maybe sit to eat a bowl or plate of something.. and then I move along with whatever other activity I’m engaged in. This is being busy /active .. but … I ask myself how mindful am I being.
I’m not alone, I bet everyone of you can tell me something similar is going on in your life right now. When I ask you to be mindful, to BE in the moment .. are you able to do so… or are you like me.. Do you need to make time to focus, to be still… to allow your body/mind to simple STOP. Let Go of the mind chatter, and BE.
We all have different ways of feeling and thinking. Let’s always accept others’ differences and respect one another. Remember that “different strokes for different folks” is the key to having harmonious relationships with the people around us. (PL2014.13)

Enjoy be happy, make time for YOU today.. even if it is only 10 .. 15 minutes. I use this music to help people unwind, I have them close their eyes and just listen to the music, it is a short piece, …joyful, and catchy. Let your body respond to the notes, and the fun of the tune. No words, just music that will weave itself through your conscious state, and activate the “energize” button in YOU.

I do have a short video of the movements that work beautifully with the music, but have yet to figure out how to show it to you. Nudge me if you want more info.

Mindful moments are fleeting, they come and go all day. Occasionally, I will sit and just take in the world around me, appreciating it all. 💖

Yes,I can’t sit to long,after lunch I go outside for a walk and stop for a summer drink with my friends,so this way my mind is not busy and I am happy.
bonjour Lise.. sharing time with friends is always a feel good time.
I often enjoy listening to Hawaiian music as I get myself ready for the day. It creates a calmness that keeps me centered on the positive. 🌴🎶🌊🥥
my Mother loved her Hawaiian music, she was a big Don Ho? fan…
My favorite Hawaiian musician is “IZ” Israel Kamakawiwo’ole. 🎶🌴
