How might life look if you lived in the present moment?
Pour yourself some chai, coffee, milk, hot chocolate, or your beverage of choice and explore some philosophical topics with me ☕️☺️✨.
“How would you carry yourself if you knew that no more ‘big bad things’ were gonna happen?"
Would you breathe more?
Would you engage in your hobbies more? Would you let go of rumination (even a percent more)? Would you see anxiety as a protective mechanism, and an illusion of control more?
What about a different question, “What if you knew ‘big bad things’ might still happen, but your anxiety was not actually serving you? What if ruminating doesn't actually help you change the outcome? What if instead it only messes with your phyisology?
Would you still brace for impact everyday worrying? Or could you conceptualize a different approach towards life?
As humans, we tend to say, “Once X,Y,Z is done, then, I will live”.
What would life look like if you lived now? Imperfectly, and as you are?
These are challenging but thought provoking questions to sit with.
Notice how your body reacts towards these concepts and journal after.
Bonus Question:
How does your body react to the question, “how would you live, knowing that you are 100% worthy as you are now?”
Does it impact how you carry yourself in your day to day life?
Are there things you are putting off for the day where things are different? Could you incorporate them even a little bit now?
