The Weekly Minute - Come to Your Senses

Instructions for "Come to Your Senses"

1. Stop what you're doing and close your eyes if you can.
2. Tune in to sounds around you..
3. Tune in to what you see in front of you.
4. Tune in to any taste that may be in your mouth.
5. Tune in to any aromas in the air.
6. Tune in to the feeling of your feet on the floor, or what your hands are touching.
7. Resume your day.

You have just taken a break from perceiving the world through your thoughts and pre-conceived notions, and opened yourself up to other ways of seeing. Our senses carry a multitude of information to us all the time, but we are often so busy with our thoughts that we miss it. Thoughts tend to repeat what you already know, to open up to new possibilities and ideas, we need to use our senses.
