My brother in law is engaged to an amazing woman, here was his creative proposal. Life is about moments like this, moments that become special forever in our memories. Moments that we will tell to our friends, children, and write in our memoirs.
Today I went to a "mindfulness" seminar at the Hammer museum, http://hammer.ucla.edu/programs-events/2014/05/mindful-awareness/, it is FREE. It takes place every Thursday at 12:30pm, sitting quietly with around 100 people, being led into a place of presence and awareness. Since I am a Yoga teacher, I like to be on a mat, lying on my back, sitting in a chair was not as comfortable. It was interesting how everyone went along for the experience, although there were a couple of people that left in the middle. It is not easy to sit quietly, face yourself, and just allow the thoughts to flow, acknowledge them, accept and respect them. She was giving some interesting facts how it makes people happier and actually changes the physical parts of the brain.
Bottom line is,
Take the time to enjoy whatever it is you are doing in the moment,
At least notice it,
It is OK to feel what you are feeling,
Maybe it will make you aware to start making changes,
It could be dangerous to disconnect from how our mind and body feels,
Our health, happiness, and quality of life depends on how we take care of ourselves,
Think about it,
Or maybe just sit down, relax, and focus on your breath,
We start thinking and we stop breathing,
Think of Nothing, Feel Everything,
Coach Yulia
