Stay in Touch: 9 Simple Actions to Achieve Mindfulness
Distracted? You're not alone. It's hard to focus on the moment. But paying attention to Right Now benefits your mental and physical health, eliminates careless behavior, frees your mind of nonsense, and inspires engagement and acceptance. That's why people turn to Mindfulness.
But turning to Mindfulness isn't enough. You have to get there. Meditating can help, but when you leave your yoga mat or favorite candle, the moment usually leaves too. You and your complicated mind begin to replay the past (what happened yesterday) or rehearse various futures (what you'll do tomorrow, as practical To-Do lists combine with outrageous fantasies). The moment disappears. Often, stress takes its place, because being in two places at once--the past or future, plus Now--is stressful.
Stay in Touch gives you 9 powerful, deliberate actions, some internal, some external, to bring you into the moment and help keep you there.
The actions aren't steps. They're simple triggers. Choose the one you need now. (If your first choice doesn't open you to the moment, another one will.)
There are 9 chapters in Stay in Touch, one for each of the 9 actions, to explain how you can make the best use of each of them. Discover and understand how they work to put you right here, right now. They are all you need to achieve and preserve mindfulness.
