          Gaining an Experiential Understanding of the Present Moment

          Our lives are forever contained within the present moment whether we are aware of it or not. Any emotion, physical response, or spiritual experience can only happen Now. Our minds may distract us with thoughts of the past or future, yet in an instance we can become present once more. Our attention and commitment to opening our lives (our hearts) to the present moment can be life enhancing and even life altering. Being present brings us more joy, spontaneity, creativity, and freedom. And, all it takes is for us to slow down, focus attention on the heart space, breathe, and fully experience what is happening within and without us. This can be done right now. Without trying to change anything, just slow down, pause deeply, breathe, feel the presence of the heart, and experience this precious moment. This is opening the heart to what is and leads to experientially knowing our true nature, the world around us, and living in harmony with the present moment. As our awareness of the present moment deepens, this becomes our reality. No more effort is needed to find the heart. Our experience of the heart becomes our awareness, awakening us to our true nature, the Heart of Consciousness.
