I’m getting better at being where my feet are 👣
I’m trying my best to not always reach for my phone when there’s a quiet moment, or thinking about what I need to do, or rushing myself to the next thing.
Just trying to be in the moment, exactly where I am.
It’s not easy and I’m definitely a working progress, I still find myself scrolling, I still find myself thinking of what I need to do once I get home. I actually think that’s okay, it’s not about never doing it, it’s about catching yourself in that moment and bringing yourself back into the present, it’s about being more aware of where your mind is taking you.
I hate the thought of not being present, I think of all the memories I’ve lost or days I’ve not fully enjoyed because my mind has been elsewhere, so it’s something I’m very conscious of and I am trying my best to stop.
So, the next time you find yourself in a quiet moment and go to reach for your phone, pause. The next time you’re out with friends or family and you can feel yourself not concentrating because you’re thinking of what you need to get from the shop on the way home, clock it and bring yourself back into the moment.
Be where your feet are 👣
