The Joy of Living in the Present Moment with Dr. Terry Wardle – Part 2

In this episode we’re back with part two of my conversation with special guest, Dr. Terry Wardle.

We learn: 

• We’ll learn why awareness and attention are key components to living in the present.
• How our brain shifts gears when we’ve experienced something a few times
• The important first step to begin living in the present moment
• How the simple act of eating an orange can help you practice being in the presence of God.
