LIVING IN THE MOMENT
---------------------------------
24 -26 April 2020
In a society that tells us that happiness is on the other side of success and that fulfillment is somewhere across a distant horizon, it’s no wonder that many of us have a hard time staying in the present moment. The mindset that so many of us adopt is one of always staying busy—always chasing, always pursuing, always onto the next thing. We wake up in the morning and think about going back to bed, we shower and think about breakfast, we eat breakfast and think about our work day ahead, we go to work and think about coming home, we arrive home and think about all of the work we left behind… It’s exhausting. And what’s most frustrating is that many of us don’t even realize we’re doing it until most of the day is already done (if ever)! 
It’s important to remember that these states—past and future—only exist in our mind and that the only state that we can ever truly savor is the present moment—This moment that we’re in right now. Years… Months… Weeks… Days… Hours… Minutes… Seconds—These all boil down to bigger and smaller collections of moments. The present moment is where we should be focusing all of our present energy. Because if we’re living a good moment, the days, months and years will take care of themselves. What’s one minute in comparison to the length of a year? It feels tiny and therefore insignificant. But the truth of the matter is, there are no insignificant minutes – or even seconds – of a person’s life. Every moment counts; every moment matters.
So, how do we make the most of our moments? To start, we have to actually be present in the moments that are given to us.
In this workshop we will see how we go on missing the present moment and will learn through short awareness techniques supported by OSHO Active meditations, how to seize the moment.
