PRESENT MOMENT - right here right now. NATURAL. A place of non-thinking, peace of mind. NOTHING processing in your mind. There is no thinking.
THINKING moves your attention away from the here and now....
Addicted to thinking
Backwards... remembering, strong feelings
Forwards.... planning, worry
Physical body is ALWAYS in the HERE AND NOW
Emotional - Every bit of thinking creates a feeling and it's the feelings that we are looking to reduce.
Spiritual = peace of mind, extended conscious gaps between our thinking
Â
PUT YOUR FULL ATTENTION and MIND onto your BODY. Still body = still mind. Put full attention on keeping everything as still as you can, including eye focus, motionless as possible.
There is a difference between THOUGHT and THINKING.
Focus on keeping body still, focus on a sound, focus on a touch sensation on your body (clothes, hands). Allow thoughts to float past if they come up. Refocus on keeping the body still, focus on a sound and focus on touch
