Meditation: Being Just This Moment, by Jed Blore

By Dr Jed Blore. This is a meditation reflecting on “being just this moment”. What is “being just this moment”? It is reading these words, hearing the sounds around you, feeling the way your body is oriented in space and supported by the ground, thinking thoughts, feeling feelings. There is nothing outside of this moment. This moment contains everything. Memory is only ever experienced in this moment; likewise for thoughts about an imagined future. This moment is life. Being this moment means immersing yourself in this experience of your life. Like diving into water, there’s no way to avoid being wet; there’s no way not to be just this moment.
