    Let your Tattoo remind you of this GIFT

    The tattoo I would have would reflect the fact that the PRESENT moment is a GIFT from god to serve as a constant reminder to enjoy the moment.

    The quirk of our brain is that it hates focusing on the present moment. Hence it is normal for our mind to constantly feel depressed of the past and worried about the future.

    When we are mindful and show our gratitude to god for gifting us the present moment, our life becomes blissful with joy.

    Hence practice mindfulness and let your tattoo always remind you of this reality.

    Live in the Present Moment

    Knowing that the The PRESENT is your TRANSFORMATION tool is the best life changing advice that I can provide from my experience.

    Very often we regret about the past and worry too much about our future due to the inherent nature of our brain to vacillate from the present moment.

    This is the biggest cause of anxiety and worry in our lives.

    In his book The Power of Now, the author Eckhart Tolle has inspired all of us to live in the present moment and unleash our best selves.

    This insight should inspire you to live in the present moment.

    Why is Mindfulness so Important?

    The Habit of Mindfulness is one habit which when practiced regularly over a period of time is sure to improve the quality of your life. I have experienced noticeable improvements since the time I started being mindful.

    The most powerful strategy to maintain good health and well being is to realize the power of now. Focus on the NOW for a fulfilling life.

    More often than not due to lack of focus our mind vacillates and hence we are either regretful of the past or obsessed with the future. This leads to anxiety, fear and restlessness.

    Practicing mindfulness a a habit is necessary to reverse the natural instinct of the brain to deny the present moment. This is wonderfully illustrated by Eckhart Tolle in his book The Power of Now.

    Hence this habit will improve your life in the long term and will make you realize long lasting benefits.

  • Your Anxiety Removal Mantra

    Your Anxiety Removal Mantra

    Make this your Anxiety Removal Mantra

    The one word I would like to give up is Anxiety. In the hustle and bustle of modern day lives, many of us are gripped with anxiety and stress. Let this post lead you to the path of your anxiety removal mantra.

    With too much of stress the level of cortisol rises in our blood. Research has shown that exposure to high amount of stress and anxiety can kill neuron and inhibit growth of new neurons in our hippocampus which is responsible for memories.

    Hence the need of the hour is to remain in flow by focusing on the present moment. Practicing gratitude and thanking god for gifting our present moment would help us forget about past regrets and future fears.

    Realizing the power of the now is indeed the mantra that can drive away anxiety and stress from our lives.

    This has been wonderfully explained by Eckhart Tolle in his best selling book The Power of Now.
