Mindfulness

Becoming mindful is on my list of things to do.  And while it sounds silly and New-Agey even to me, I think it is important.

I will have to get some books on the subject to make sure that we are talking about the same thing, but what I am striving for is the ability to actually experience my life.  It seems that I rush around checking things off my list simply because they are on my list:  get up, read my emails, make breakfast, hit the gym, shower, dress for work, pack my lunch, go to work, sit in class and try to behave, come home, unpack the lunchbox, sit and watch tv until I fall asleep.  Rinse and repeat.

Now I'm not complaining about my life mind you.  It's more a complaint about how I live it and how I seem to be trying to survive it.

So I am hoping that some guidance in slowing down or turning on my brain to think about what I am doing, or something like that will help.

And if you have any book or article suggestions to make I will gladly take them!
