We have a choice in improving our lives through how we react and how we work with our mental activities. Meditation provides us the tools to look at our mental activity more closely and make more positive choices.

Positive affirmations to feel love, happiness, comfort, and peace.

Watching your senses and wandering mind helps with mindfulness, and shows you options to choose a happier path.

If we rely solely on our emotions or our automatic reactions and habits, we could be completely wrong in how we react.

While doing this meditation, it is easy to move into a relaxed state. The relaxed state becomes enjoyable and can become hard to leave.

The present moment is always what is happening right now, but much of the time our mind is not in the moment.

It sounds so easy, but it is difficult to just be aware of your senses. If you can focus on your senses, you can let go of the busy mind, be in the present moment, and relax.

If you have not practiced meditation, chances are you rarely watch your thoughts, mental reactions, and emotions. Most of us feel that our mind is in charge and it is who we are. Is this true?

Walking meditation exercises improve your awareness of how you are breathing, and help smooth and balance your breath. This type of exercise also helps develop awareness of where your mind is going.

Another way of finding happiness comes from within ourselves. Inner happiness can be tapped into at any time and is easily attainable. Obtaining inner happiness can be done through meditation.

You do not need to allow your mind total control; you can see your choices and decide on the best path.

If we give the present moment more attention and see that each issue is not the same as past situations, we might just look at each event differently.
