Leave your phone at home.
Go out. Breathe. Look. Smell. Listen. Feel. Be present. Go back home when you have emptied your head. Repeat every day. 
Spring has finally arrived where I live.
The signs are everywhere: The days are getting longer and the sun shines a bit more often. The birds are singing in the early morning. The air is filled with the scents of flowers blossoming and trees waking up. I can even feel it in my energy. I too feel a bit more alive. What about you? Does spring give you a new energy? 
Smile, for no reason.
Smile to anyone. They just might smile back at you. You just might bring them some joy. Smile and you might notice that you feel a little bit better. Smile for no reason. It's free. 
Look inside you
Feel. Listen. Notice. Tensions, heaviness, lightness... Emotions, memories, reality, truths and lies, the words you use. Look inside you Breathe in. Let go. Be in the moment. 
Look around you.
Notice. Observe. The colors, the hues, the light, the shadows, ... The details, the big picture, ... Look around you. Breathe in. Be in the moment. |
