Have you wondered how to live life more authentically and in the moment? Chopra, in Ageless Body, Timeless Mind gives us three exercises to achieve this state of timelessness.
1. Experiencing and trusting emotions: Write down several feelings you have throughout the day, positive or negative. This will bring you in the present moment and allow you to get in touch with your authentic feelings. Chopra states, "Yet nothing is more important than experiencing your feelings. They are the most spontaneous part of your makeup, the most primary expression of your awareness as it relates to the world."
2. Remaining centered amid chaos: Take 5 minutes before the 2 most hectic times for you during the day. Close your eyes, focus on your breath for several minutes. Then, place your awareness on your chest. Stay in this silent moment for a few minutes. This will aid you in finding your center when confusion is around you.
3. Being childlike: Choose 2 activities that you did as a child to do tomorrow. ie. hopscotch, baking muffins, reading a children's book, watching a cartoon...In this place, find the intrinsic aliveness and joy of just being.
When we experience the above exercises they bring us back to our awareness and wholeness. Creating an ageless body and a timeless mind.
