You hear, but do you take time to really listen?
You look, but do you take time to really see?
You eat, but do you take time to really taste?
You touch, but do you take time to really feel?
Your senses are what connect you to the world, they allow you to know and understand all that is going on around you.
Like most people, you probably take your senses for granted. And that’s totally understandable.
But what if just once in a while you stopped to appreciate them?
All the information you consume comes through one or a combination of your senses to your brain, and it’s only then that your brain can make decisions about what is best for you.
Briefly focus on your senses by doing a quick sensory audit.
Go through each one of your senses and just for a moment, really experience each one.
This practice will increase your awareness of your surroundings and create the opportunity to be more present in what you’re doing.
Taking time to occasionally ground yourself through your senses is a wonderful exercise, almost like a brief reset in your day.
Your senses are your keys to the world.
Give them some attention and experience what they might unlock for you.
