How easily can you be present in the NOW?
The 1-Minute NOW Test
When was the last time you took 1 minute away from your iPhone, iPad, social apps, computer screens, tv streams, and other distractions from the NOW to find the real “I”— You?
Exercise: Find a clock and time yourself for one minute to keep your mind clear and avoid distraction.
Did you pass the test? Were you able to remain in the NOW for 1 MINUTE without being distracted by one thing or another? It’s not so easy to achieve, is it?
It may take practice, but a 1-minute mindfulness exercise – even once a day – will help you in the NOW.
Remember, your mental health matters, and if you nourish it as you nourish your body with food, you’ll get an excellent result.
Stay present for yourself!
