For a few weeks of reading this post I kept thinking about it. It happens that I’m usually thinking about what I’m going to do next, what next? What next? And don’t fully enjoy what I’m doing at the present moment. If I’m jogging I’ll think about the yoga, in the middle of yoga I’ll think about preparing dinner, during dinner I’ll think about preparing for bed, and so on. This past days, too overcome the issue, whenever I find myself thinking about the “next” I’ll focus on my breathing (when I remember, that is). Breathing gets me in the “now”.

If any of you have suggestions, please share them.

Yes, and all this is getting even harder when you're becoming aware of it. However, it's definitely better to know your mind is jumping from one thing to the next, making stillness nearly impossible, than remaining ignorant about it - be it consciously or not. Your decisions and determination sound great, but then what else could we expect! Have fun at home!

Thanks for sharing so much in this post, Kimberly. I saw so much of myself as I was reading this. Yes, thank God for yoga, and thank God for women like you that share their life and their hopes and dreams with others. Have a wonderful time with your family- can't wait for all the news and new interviews!
