Living in the moment has been long seen as the realm of Buddhist monks and Zen practitioners, but ever more so in the mainstream, practising mindfulness is being seen as a way, if not the way to live and enjoy life.
It’s all too easy to fall into the trap of worrying about the things that you have no control over rather than dealing with the things at your fingertips. Why do we worry about the things that could happen, when it would be so much more constructive to deal with the stuff that is going on; or to actually spend some time appreciating all the good things that are in our lives?
‘Live Now’ is the recent book by Eric Smith. You can read all about his reasons and inspirations behind the book here, but put simply this is a great book filled with beautifully illustrated messages that at basic level might give your day a lift or, getting deeper, might actually be a part of you changing your life view.
The book consists of over 100 pages of original artwork from collaborators all over the world with all of its pages perforated to tear out easily to frame and hang or give to friends or better, strangers, to spread some smiles.
