My Jack Russell takes me for two walks a day. Rain or shine. Morning and night. She’s always excited to hear the rattle of the leash. She’s there, waiting and present, no other agenda. All too often my mind may be elsewhere …..somewhere further along in the day, or what’s for dinner, or what happened yesterday, or the day before. And so … I’ve started to pause once her leash is clipped on, and look directly at her, and she looks at me … we pause … and then we walk … in the present. As we walk, the thoughts still come … and go. I notice my feet touching the ground, I notice the sounds around me …
A reminder to get present, moment by moment, as the day unfolds

Nice daily routine for both of you.Most of us seem to need to be reminded to stay present it seems. Life works better the more we can practice.
