The Joy of Living in the Present Moment with Dr. Terry Wardle - Part 1
What do we miss when we're focused on the past or on the future instead of the present moment we've been given? It's something we probably have all thought about. How to be present. How to enjoy each moment. We dive into why the present moment is so important and how to begin to cultivate it with special guest, Dr. Terry Wardle.
