“Mindfulness is being aware of yourself, others, and your surroundings in the moment. When consciously and kindly focusing awareness on life as it unfolds minute by precious minute, you are better able to savor each experience. Also, being closely attentive gives you the opportunity to change unwise or painful feelings and responses quickly. In fact, being truly present in a mindful way is an excellent stress reducer and, because of that, can be seen as consciousness conditioning, a strengthening workout for body, mind, heart, and spirit.” WayGivingMindHeartMomentsFactsFeelingsBodyAbleSpiritOpportunityConsciousnessMinutesAwarenessMindfulnessStressResponsePainfulExcellentWorkoutSurroundingsConditioningStrengtheningUnwiseMind HeartOpportunity To ChangePainful Feelings Book:The Mindful Woman: Gentle Practices for Restoring Calm, Finding Balance, and Opening Your Heart Source: The Mindful Woman: Gentle Practices for Restoring Calm, Finding Balance, and Opening Your Heart

But if the legacy we helped give Oregon and which made it twinkle from afar—if it goes, then I guess I wouldn't want to live in Oregon anyhow.” IfsKnowsWantGivingMayLongMadeI CanActivityStressTradeCancerSpreadMade ItLegacyFuelLove LifeActivistAfarTerminalOregonTrade OffsTerminal Cancer Author:Tom McCall
