Gavin J is back with another engaging episode of The Therapy Suite on UK Health Radio. This time, he welcomes Florence from Yoga Retreats to chat about the power of living in the present moment. Florence, who organises yoga and wellness retreats both in the UK and abroad, shares her insights on how being mindful can significantly improve your well-being. She talks about her recent trips to Cambodia and India, emphasising the importance of taking time to rest and rejuvenate.
Florence explains that living in the 'here and now' isn't just a trendy phrase; it's a vital practice for mental health. She delves into how appreciating each moment can help you let go of past regrets and ease future anxieties. Drawing on teachings from Buddha and modern wisdom, she outlines practical steps to cultivate mindfulness in everyday life.
Whether it's paying attention to your breathing, enjoying a leisurely walk, or simply being present during meals, these small actions can make a big difference. The conversation also touches on how children naturally live in the present and how adults can learn from them. Florence points out that as we grow older, we often get caught up in future plans or past mistakes, losing touch with the present.
She offers tips on how to balance planning for the future without letting it overshadow your current happiness. This episode is a must-listen if you're looking to find more peace and joy in your daily life. Florence's practical advice and Gavin's engaging style make for an inspiring discussion that will leave you motivated to embrace the present moment. So, are you ready to start living in the 'here and now'?
