Hello everyone and welcome. I’d love to talk to you today about living in the now. I think it's
something that some of us think of an awful lot and others it doesn't even cross the mind
and to live in the now is to, in a sense, you know, to take those steps
as you walk through life at that moment. I don't mean of in the future.
I always feel that living in the now is today, this moment, whatever you're doing
and don't be afraid of, you know, maybe where you're going
but it's like absorb living in the now, allow yourself to, how would I say, feel that energy,
feel that you are alive. You wouldn't be living in the now if you weren't
and no matter what's happening in your life, every day you wake and you get out of bed
and have your breakfast or go for a walk or you're heading off to work or you're
heading off to college or you know you're actually living in the now in this moment
of time, you are alive, you are, what would I say, allowing all your senses
to feel everything around you. You are living in the, what would I say,
in the essence of all energy and the universe around you, literally everything
and people would say to me, Lorna I don't know how to live in the now
and they would say I have no interest in doing anything
but the thing is they are living in the now
so you have to allow yourself. Every day is even a new beginning for you,
you're living in the now, no day is the same. Sometimes somebody would say to me
but every day is the same and I would say to them well go back maybe to Thursday and write down
everything you did on Thursday and that means literally everything,
even if you were talking to someone and recognize that you were living in the now
at time on that Thursday and it's not the same as the now you're living because today is another day
and life can change so much day to day or it could be week to week or it could be month to month
in so many different ways. I love the way nature lives in the now,
how nature you know, how would I say, takes time to soak up the heat,
to enjoy even though they may be looking for food
but you would often see a bird or a rabbit or a dog or a cat you know they're great examples to
us they're living in the now. They don't get bored in the same way and they don't even know that word
but they will stretch out
and soak up all of that energy everything around them and I think it's so important for us to
just remember that every second of your life you are alive as well
and if you weren't alive you wouldn't be living in the now, you know, and
grasping each day
and saying to yourself wow this is another day this is another beginning for me this is me alive.
Become more and more conscious of living in the moment, you might even call it the moment of now,
like even I’m sitting here talking with you I'm living in this moment sitting here and maybe when
you're watching this video you could do the same, you could say to yourself I'm living in the moment
watching this video and I think sometimes we forget because we forget to truly
live in those moments of the now because so many times we are rushing. So you watch a
video and it has to be short because you don't have time but that's not living in that moment,
you're doing it too quick, you're not well, it's well what I could say, it is part of living
in the now but in a sense you're not allowing yourself to live fully in that moment of time
and every moment of time is how could I call it it's fantastic
you know when you spiritually start to realize that you know you can
grasp the hope and at times grasp the meaning of your life
which your life has a huge amount of meanings so live into, you know,
that moment where you are now not living in the moment of the past
not living in the moment of what you hope to be the future
you have to live today you have to grasp this moment
and live it to the fullest you possibly can be
and allow yourself to see that light of hope and I would always say to everyone you know
spiritually call on your guardian angel to help you or any other angel as well and in a sense
sometimes when we realize at a time that we're not actually living in the moment
and in a sense how would I say connecting to the moment because we've been rushing
around so much I would say to you take a deep breath and stop
and I would say to you that would be very good for you. Just take a deep breath and stop no matter
what moment it is and make yourself conscious that every moment in your life, every now you're going
to start to allow yourself to feel that moment to feel that energy, you're going to allow yourself
to connect to the universe in that sense and that means connecting to all life on this planet
because we are all connected and yes when you go for a walk or you're going for a drive in your car
if you're not living that moment in that drive of that car or going for that walk
you're not enjoying it you have lost the essence of living in the moment that now
and it's like in a sense, you know, it's like a bottle full of all our moments and even if you
write them down you might be able to recognize at times that you didn't fully live in that moment
or there could be three or four or even more or you could say to yourself
I haven't lived in the moment for a long, long time
but maybe now start to make the effort, maybe now allow yourself to be
free to live in the moment to live in the now and realize that every day is, you know,
a new beginning every day is a new potential you know but we have to live those moments.
We don't really want to miss them or miss the essence of those moments of what those moments
can, how would I say, absorb into you, can help you to feel good, can help you to feel
more positive with yourself. So I think that's what happens so many times
people just feel they're not living in the now because you know they're they're not
allowing the now to move forward they're in a sense holding it into yourself but ask your
guardian angel to help you to release that and again I would say it's like a practice every day
and I hate to say, it's like a lesson but I never excuse me, I never look on anything as a lesson
maybe in the way that everyone else does and sometimes we find it or would you say too hard or
boring and but just to live in the now is just to make yourself conscious that
today I'm going to live in the now, I'm living in the now talking to yourself I'm living in the now
with all the words that I'm saying, I'm what would you say feeling and sending all the energy
out there and I am enjoying it and I'm feeling in a sense positive and sending that positivity
out to all of you. Don't miss those moments of the now and where you are now that is so important so
whatever you're doing today whether you're going down to collect children or you're driving the car
or you're going for a walk or you're in work like so many of us forget to live in the now
while at work because we're rushing and trying to get so much done that in a sense we're not
clearing our mind and allowing ourselves to live in the now because your work
would improve. Your mind would or would I say become clearer and responsive
because you're taking in everything around you and you have decided to live in
this moment of the now and doing this work with scrubbing a floor and enjoying it,
watching every, what would you say, swing of the mop,
watching you know the water and knowing that you have achieved a huge amount in this day
more strongly than ever before because you have allowed yourself to live in the moment
of the now. It's like even when you go outside and stand at your back door
you know or you're having your lunch and you're outside, live in the now of that moment
and I know you all can do it and I know it'll bring you more hope and more confidence and
more positivity within yourself and it's not a chore. Just remind yourself
to live in the now this moment of time. God bless and love you all, Bye, Bye
