Day 29 April Intentional Healing
1. Being in the moment or the power of now!
Focusing on what is in front of you
This is a Stoic concept.
However, the Stoics had different tools which worked together to improve presence.
We also require the best approach and tools.
Without tools and an understanding of what it means to be present, we can bypass emotions.
Being present requires practice of self-parenting foremost, and then once proficient, it becomes easier to manage ourselves and come back to the now.
Self-parenting is being present.
Ways we practice a quick return to presence or mindfulness
Observing thoughts and reframing
Boundaries
Less complaining more parenting.
More forgiveness and more presence.
More letting go and more feeling.
