Pamphlet Mindfulness: Volume 5: Be Present

By JEREMY GLEIM

It may seem silly to dedicate an entire volume of Pamphlet Mindfulness to the concept of being present, since mindfulness itself is all about the cultivation of present-moment awareness. But consider this for a moment; how often throughout your day do you split your focus between two, three, or any number of tasks?
Talking on the phone while driving, cooking, working, etc.Scrolling social media while your child, parent, partner, friend, etc. is talking to you.Listening to a podcast while you're cooking dinner, talking to someone in the room, and passively watching TV.Thinking about work, school, life while you eat.
Don't worry, we're all guilty of these behaviors. It's hard not to be preoccupied with multiple things when the pace of modern life moves so fast. Life can spin at dizzying speeds, and it makes you feel like you won't be able to keep up unless you do fifty things at once. Is that really the best way to approach life though...only partially focused on everything? This volume is about bringing awareness to your daily life and behaviors, and how practicing present-moment awareness during your routine activities can actually strengthen your mindfulness practice in profound ways.
