5 ways to live in the present

Living in the present has been considered the most preferred way to live by Buddhism. I am experimenting a similar lifestyle and would like to list 5 ways to better live in the present:-

1. Meditate:- Meditation exercises your brain to live in the present. Every time you inhale and exhale your life is taking in and giving back. During this time, stay in the present. Focus on the breathing, feel the air at the edge of your nose going into you and then hold. Release the air(jiv) back to the world.

2. Eat, Drink, Drive slowly:- Every time you do any of the following the activities, try to focus on the activity. Each activity will give you the please and keep you in the present.

3. Do nothing:- Just do nothing. Let life do its thing and enjoy the moments around you without controlling them.

4. Love and think love and kindness:- What you feel, think will happen. Spend time thinking about others and loving them. Even if you don't like them just share the love and kindness without any expectations.

5. Focus on everything you do:- Focus on everything you do in life. This life will make you do extraordinary things if you focus on things you do. Donot think why you are better or worse then others, just do it and enjoy while doing it.

I hope this helps you live in the present and enjoy your life
