As soon as you honour the present moment, all unhappiness and struggle dissolve, and life begins to flow with joy and ease. When you act out the present-moment awareness, whatever you do becomes imbued with a sense of quality, care, and love - even the most simple action.

Eckhart Tolle

What is Awareness?

In some ways the question above makes little sense. It is like asking a bird about the air or a fish about water. Yet it is hardly surprising that one of the biggest selling books of the Twentieth Century was ‘the Power of Now’ by Eckhart Tolle and writers like the Buddhist monk Thich Nhat Hanh and the Catholic priest Fr Richard Rohr are best sellers.

It would seem that in a world we have never - in one way - being more connected - we are more disconnected and one of the key areas of disconnection is with our own selves. Surrounded by noise, multi-stimuli and busyness we are less and less able to hear ourselves and be aware of our own inner voice and wisdom.

Awareness is a conscious, resourced being in the present moment.
