The real present in life... is presence.

Me drinking my LMNT Chocolate Electrolytes this morning.


Pro tip: heat up a cup of water or milk and mix these electrolytes in. Great way to start your day!


The next 4 days I will be spending with family in California.


Some much needed R&R is in store for me.


I don't know about you, but ever since I can remember, when I travel, I have asked myself what do I want to "get out" of this experience.


Recently (within the past couple years) I have shifted my perspective to what can I give to this present moment...


Because right now is all that I have.


And if I am looking to "get" something from this moment, I am not focused on LIVING the moment in its entirety.


Rather than cherishing the time and place I am in, I start attaching my peace/happiness to a result that may or may not happen.


Have you ever done this?


I am still a novice at this practice.


Yet, just like the other things I practice in life... my full intent is to become a pro at it.


Call me the presence pro. LMAO okay that was corny.


But for real, we all need to work a bit more on becoming unattached to the imaginary outcomes we hope to get from life... and instead, focusing on the giving and the living.


Join me on this mission.


Gift yourself a present today and practice being a bit more present. ;)

p.s. today I am grateful that I will get to see family I have not seen in almost a year. I will cherish these moments.
