(00:00) When you eat, you're supposed to eat. When you walk, you're supposed to walk. When you sleep, you're supposed to sleep. [music] And when you have a conversation, you're supposed to listen. But today, you [music] eat and you scroll. You walk and you talk on the phone. You sleep, but your mind is running.
(00:20) You listen, but you're already planning your reply. You're never [music] in the present moment. No wonder your gut doesn't fully digest, your sleep doesn't fully recover you. People that are in front of you don't feel like your own. So, what to do? Do everything with full awareness. When you eat, full attention should be on the food.
(00:42) When you walk, only on your steps. When you listen, only on the person across you. In yoga, this is called Dharana. And every time the mind wanders, simply bring it back again and again and again until it learns to [music] stick. Yoga doesn't begin on the mat. It begins on your plate. It begins on a walk. It begins [music] in a conversation.
