How can you be more present? That is, really, truly present? How can you be more engaged and grounded in the moment? It feels like an impossible question to answer, especially as a parent. The duty basically requires you to keep, at minimum, 1,001 things in your head, all of which can tug you away from the here and now. Then there’s the modern world, which is always pawing at you. Apps. Email notifications. News updates. All of these vie for your attention. The result: We’re physically present but in many important ways, just not there. This isn’t ideal. Who wants to be a bystander in their own life? But here's the thing: You can train yourself to be more present. Even better? Small steps can make a big difference.
