Far too often, we find ourselves drifting away from the conversation, retreating to the anxieties that compile our lives, our future, our mind. We get too caught up in planning our futures, our days; and we forget to stop and actively listen to what is going on around us. When was the last time you went on a walk and silently listened to all the sounds that create the noise that is our lives; seeing the sights that paint the pictures of our memories?
Mindfulness has been a historical concept carried through the hands of time and through studies is accredited for its benefits. Actively participating in every encounter you are given will allow you to gain an appreciation for life and its experiences which will result in physical and spiritual alterations to perspective and priorities. So next time you take a walk, enjoy the silence. Soak everything in.
