In this video, our classroom takes you through what being in the moment means. #Mindfulness is all about living in the moment. We live in an age of distraction and spend the better part of our lives planning over the future or ruminating over the past. Inadvertently, we pass on these skills to our children as well. I often hear my children speaking about some space in the future, making stories, building plans.

Yet, one of lifes sharpest paradoxes is that our "future" hinges on our ability to live in this very moment.

"Were living in a world that contributes in a major way to mental fragmentation, disintegration, distraction, decoherence," says Buddhist scholar B. Alan Wallace.

Life unfolds in the present and yet we let the present slip away like quick sand: unseized, unrelished and totally squandered in our worries about the future or in our quest to understand the past.

John Kabat Zinn says, "Ordinary thoughts course through our minds like a deafening waterfall". And deafened we are: to the sound of the bird, to the falling rain, to the laughter of our child, to the thunder of the cloud, to the hello of a friend.

We course through life blinded by a future and yes, blind we are: to the beauty of the spring, to the flight of a bird, to the yellow in the flower, to the hopes in our child, you the mischief in that laughter..

This moment is very powerful and Fablefy presents our sixth video in the series "Fly with Able and Fy". It is our quest to bring the wonderous "moment" to you so that you can cultivate a sense of awareness in you.

This MOMENT just needs to be still and you can feel the silence within. All you need to do is "breath"..
