Opis

What does it mean to live in the now? Conscious thought. Consciously thinking is being aware of your thoughts, paying attention to them, and having the mindfulness to change them, if needed, in every moment. This book will help you sort through your thoughts, your dreams, and guide you into releasing the ones that no longer serve your best interest. Everyone is living their own story. Everyone has their own definition of what it means to live, what it means to die, and everything in between. Our stories change in every moment. Details change in every moment. We identify with our stories, but a lot of the time we forget that the story changes. People change and grow. Is time to let go of the old versions of you. It is time to let go of your attachments to, and expectations of, a future that will never happen. Living in the now is a choice. We often forget we have choice. We forget how amazing life can be. Yesterday and tomorrow are just words, words with thoughts attached. At its core, time is an illusion. 'Yesterday' and 'tomorrow' are perceptions of the mind, and we use time to justify them as going in one direction or the other. The concept of 'now' is another matter. We are all living in a single moment, or an infinite number of moments, and it is the human mind that perceives that moment as expanded over time. Sort through your fears and your belief systems to find the real you. The human mind is a powerful thing. It can believe anything it wants to. All you have to do is change your thoughts and you'll change your world. This takes a constant commitment, for many thoughts and beliefs have been built over time, have many emotional attachments to them, so they take more effort to change. But it can be done. All things are possible if you believe they are. Why do you think the way you do? The answer should surprise you, and that is a good thing.
