Living in Present moment - defined

Everything we need is here with us in the present moment. Still we tend to reach out for the next moment or get stuck in the past.
We seem hard-wired to resist the now with all of our being. And when we resist the now we resist all of reality, because it takes the entire Universe to create the present moment.
Life happens in the here and now. No reality exists outside of this moment right here and now.
When we learn to step back and just allow this moment to be what it is, we open a brand new, empowering reality. No grasping, no wanting, just the peace and joy of this moment await when we let go.
It sound easy. Many times people mistake this concept with the process of just sitting still, but there’s more to it than that.
It’s about where our mind is. And we normally keep our minds busy with the task of rushing back and forth between the future and the past.
We leave so little concentration free to explore the now!
And sadly, right here and right now is where our freedom is found. LIFE happens in this moment, and when we learn to accept that we become free from all the things that stress us out or hold us back.
Let your eyes see what they will. Let your ears hear what they want. Don’t resist, just say yes to right here and right now.
Hold the moment by allowing the now to hold you. Don’t struggle or strain in your effort to attain this present moment, just let it be.
Be the space around you and observe your body and mind as if from outside and above. Let go completely and flow with what is.
