I've been working on mindfulness and present moment living for a long time now, and I think the greatest leap forward I've had in the last year or so is simply noticing how often I am NOT present. I've also learned that the fastest route to the here and now is through our senses - sound,taste,touch,smell,sight (I've been meaning to write more about this for a while). My challenge for this year (and beyond) is to learn to be present with my emotions - I've realised how often I resist my negative feelings, my petty irritations, my raging angers - I push them aside, instead of just allowing them to come up, have their say and then peacfully float away :-) <br />All the best with your practice and I look forward to hearing more about how it is going.

Too true. I too have a tendency to forget to live now and sometimes seek to be at a different point in time. A timely reminder too, as I anticipate packing up the Christmas paraphernalia ...... many of us crave the beginning of spring and want to see the back of winter but I expect the season still has much to offer!
