It’s real life

‘Old Father Thames’ by Philip Dodson

Take a moment, right now, this very instance and breathe, in slowly and out slowly. Notice your belly expand and contract as you take each breath. Breath in and out for maybe a minute or 5, it doesn’t matter, it only matters that you are aware of your breathing.

Sit still and listen, notice the background sounds like a ticking clock or birds tweeting, notice the smells, see without labelling it, just look.

Take this moment and repeat this for a few minutes and then notice what’s changed. Of course, if you feel more peaceful and calm, then you could choose to repeat this more often, in fact, as much as you can.

Consciousness is real life as it is only found in this moment, we can not be it in the past or the future, they are just fantasies of our minds

Walk lightly

Walk lightly on this earth
Step with peace
Notice the world
Smell the air
Breathe in the atmosphere

Smile to another
Laugh at the situation
Skip and jump
See the birds
Touch the trees

Walk lightly on this earth
There is no rush
Enjoy where you are
Don’t hurry to the next place
Be in this moment

Walk lightly on this earth
Be at one with all that is
Walk lightly on this earth
And do not burn it
Walk lightly on this earth
It is where our soul is now
Walk lightly on this earth
Be at one with nature and learn
