Living Presently With More Patience and Flexibility moodysolace

There's always so much to look forward to in the future. Alternatively, once we begin thinking "When this happens in the future, I'll be happier," looking to the future becomes the means to escape the present. By projecting our thoughts to future versions of ourselves and future wants, versions that are by no means guaranteed, we are wasting away the only spec of time that is promised to us: the present moment (duh). Obviously, living in the moment is easier said and done, so this episode walks you through ways you can incorporate more patience and flexibility into your everyday life instead of getting lost and anxious in the "what if's" and "will be's." If you find yourself daydreaming about the future so much so that it's causing you to be impatient or have a hard time breaking out of your rigid routine in an attempt to have as much control over your day as humanly possible, then this episode is for you. So relax, get comfortable, and enjoy!
