Imagination & The Now - Hug Nation Dec 6 2011

There are only 2 things you can put your attention on:
1) This NOW moment.
2) Your imagination.
The Now is the real visceral experience you are always having. The sensations. The visuals. The infinite richness of the universe right now.
If you are not experiencing the Now, then you are in your imagination. Whether an fantastic imagined future or potential outcome to the workday -- or a memory of transgressions of yesterday -- they are all generated by the imagination.

This week's Belief Buffet dish about the power of our imagination *if* we can be disciplined about our thoughts. (And the danger if we let our minds roam wild.)

Damn, Halcyon, you are such a profound lightworker! Thanks for keeping us one the path :)

@FenderMadison I think some people definitely are more tuned in, but I don't think it is natural. More likely meditation practice, yoga, or some other daily practice. Being present, I think, takes practice. :)

Do you think some people experience the NOW more naturally than others? I've always felt inside "Dang, that guy/gal just really seems tapped into the NOW". Those are people, like yourself that I'd also categorize as being very Genuine as well. When you talk to people like this you cant help but notice how in tuned they are with what you are telling them. They are engaged but are not, at the same time, formulating their responses. I love this topic.

@iamkarenchicago I am a huge fan! "The Power of Now" was a powerful book for me.
