The importance of mindfulness during a pandemic, or any crisis, is just so important . . . yet, we often tend to do the opposite and get swept right up in the momentum of the threat. We reside in the "what if's" of the future, catastrophizing and rehearsing the solutions to problems that don't exist. Meanwhile, our valuable life minutes are slipping through our finger tips . . . and we can never get these back, ever. Residing in the past or future derails focus, creativity, and productivity as well as keeps us from being emotionally available to those we love and ourselves.
Being fully present also leads to a calm and joyful mind.
Life is now in session.
