Most of the time we go through the day, through our activities, our work, our relationships, our conversations, and very rarely do we ground ourselves in an awareness of our bodies. We are lost in our thoughts, our feelings, our emotions, our stories, our plans.
Whenever we are not present, right then, in that situation, we should stop and take a few deep breaths. Settle into the body again. Feel yourself sitting. Feel the step of the walk. Be in your body. The Buddha made a very powerful statement about this:
"Mindfulness of the body leads to nirvana."
Such awareness is not a superficial practice. Mindfulness of the body keeps us present.
