227. The power of staying present

Our attention is constantly being pulled in every direction: we're thinking about the past, overthinking the future, getting notifications from our phones, information from our environment. When was the last time you truly slowed down and enjoyed the present? When was the last time you savoured the moment like you do a nice meal, or a sleep in? Today we are discussing the power of mindfulness, and the power of staying present, including:

  • The three biggest enemies to staying present
  • The psychology of disassocation
  • The psychological benefits of living in the moment
  • What the world's biggest happiness study says about staying present
  • The 3x3x3 mindfulness method
  • Embracing your 'romance' moments, and more

Listen now to learn about the art of noticing, staying present, and feeling life fully.
