They talk about what it means to \u201cBe in The Moment\u201d. They share insights from each other\u2019s experience on why it\u2019s important to practice more mindfulness in our daily lives, and what are the obvious and not so obvious reasons to do so.\nOther takeaways include what makes being in the moment so difficult these days and when you do it, it\u2019s like a form of meditation which research has shown has demonstrably positive effects on our overall well-being. They share tips, tools, and techniques on how to practice present moment awareness and how doing so expands time and can actually pause the linear flow.\nSHOW NOTES\nListen to find out more about:\nExpanding time\nSlowing down\nExperiencing the gifts life's little things bring\nThe power of our mind\nHow to take a photograph - the power of observation\nMindfulness for creativity\nMindfulness for stress relief\nThe physiology of control and mindfulness\nThe multiple functions of our cells\nHow meditation is helpful for pain control\nBeing more conscious\nFinding your reset button\nThe Oasis of being in the present\nRole of letting go and acceptance\nServing others by being present\nGratitude\nMindful moments - reminders\nSilence is golden\nCreating a balance\nSOME OF THE AUTHORS AND BOOKS\nPresent Moment Awareness: A Better Way to Stay in Control by Deepak Chopra, M.D.Breathing: The Master Key to Self Healing by Andrew WeilDigital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World by Cal NewportLazy Man's Guide to Enlightenment by\u00a0Thaddeus Golas\nMusic by Jonn Serrie\nWebsite: http://www.thousandstar.com/\nRecord Labels and Links to Jonn\u2019s Music: Valley Entertainment and New World Music","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/6da2d5a6-6516-4edd-9761-3a68cd6c9733/1329e740-77bb-11eb-ba6b-e75e2a707a23.jpg"}
