It is inevitable to turn to our past, several times a day. It is all the way that has made us get to where we are, for better or for worse. 😔

It is also normal for us to think ahead, thinking about how to evolve a situation that we do not have control over. 👀

The problem arises when we focus too much on moments that do not exist. The past is past, and the future has not yet come. We cannot allow them to take control of our life, which happens now. 👁

There is a saying that says “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called present.” 🧾

Make the past die every moment you think about it. You don’t need it. Refer to it only when it is absolutely relevant to the present. Feel the power of this moment and the fullness of Being. Feel your presence here and now. Living in the past makes you lose everything that is happening in the present. 😋

It is said that human beings occupy 70% of their thinking in thinking about past things, especially bad things: the break with our partner, we did not study enough for an exam, we forgot to call our brother to congratulate him on his birthday … The past, badly managed, is what prevents us from living in the present. 😱

As for the future, we refer to them only when we are worried about something. Then you are identified with your mind, which is projected into a future situation imagination and generates fear. There is no way to deal with that situation, because it does not exist. It is a mental ghost. 👻

The only thing you have to deal with, what you have to deal with in real life is this moment.
Living in the present does not just mean stopping thinking about the past or the future. It is also learning how to get the most out of the here and now, enjoying it, being fully aware of it. 🙋‍♂️

Focusing on every detail, be it the music we are listening to, the taste of the tea we are drinking, its temperature, the aroma of the room …
In short, learning to enjoy present situations, involving our body and our ability to perceive, trying to see the good things around us. 🪁

Our thoughts will always try to get us out of this moment of the present, but if you deny it every time then you will spend more time in the present. 💪
