Got Some Downtime? Meditate On The Present Moment

Got Some Downtime? Meditate On The Present Moment

The stress and strain of constantly being connected can sometimes take your life -- and your well-being -- off course. GPS For The Soul can help you find your way back to balance.

GPS Guides are our way of showing you what has relieved others' stress in the hopes that you will be able to identify solutions that work for you. We all have de-stressing "secret weapons" that we pull out in times of tension or anxiety, whether they be photos that relax us or make us smile, songs that bring us back to our heart, quotes or poems that create a feeling of harmony, or meditative exercises that help us find a sense of silence and calm. We encourage you to look at the GPS Guide below, visit our other GPS Guides here, and share with us your own personal tips for finding peace, balance and tranquility.

When was the last time you stopped to just experience what's around you?

When we have a million things to do, it can be incredibly easy to get swept up in what's to come. Deadlines, upcoming events, projects at work -- we're constantly thinking ahead. Even when our minds have some idle time, they tend to wander to thoughts of the future. The next time you have a little downtime, take a look at the inspiration below, which will guide you to focus on the present moment. We promise you'll feel focused and refreshed.

Still not convinced of the power of presence? This may help:
