Enjoy the moment

I am a very task oriented person.  Got my list of things to do.  It seems that I am driving in high gear all the time. However in the past few weeks after I bought a new shower gel,  I took it down a few notches. Before lathering up I took a moment to really breathe in the scent of my new product.  What a relaxing way to start the day!  I felt my blood pressure drop and relaxed at a whole new level.  I don't know if it's just the White Tea and Ginger fragrance or if I just realized how good it felt to stop and take a moment to enjoy the sense of smell that God gave me. It's really made a difference for me.  I don't have to be in a hurry all the time.  If you haven't tried this, give it a try.  Put your body wash on your loofah and take a deep breath.  Inhale and just enjoy a moment of peace.  It can be a better start to your day.

  Maybe you don't like shower gels, it could work with smelling your coffee or even stopping to smell a flower.  Take a moment and enjoy a sunrise or sunset.  Feel the breeze on your face.  Smile at someone who passes you. Slow down and take time to enjoy life.
