Are you Rushed, stressed out and being driven everyday of your life? The reasons could be that you are not concentrating on what you are doing.

See what happened when three women were given a raisin each in their hands with their eyes closed.

I had never thought that raisins can crackle amazed one as she held the dry shrunk raisin close to her ear, the second felt the stickiness and the third experienced the sweetness of it though, she never liked raisins.

It took ten minutes for all of them for the sensual exploration. Stunned, they noted how intensely you could perceive something familiar, if you fully concentrate on it.

Our day-to-day hectic culture makes it really hard to be Mindful an ability that we increasingly lose in life when we do not concentrate on one single task we have to finish.

No matter what how hard we try, we usually are not fully with it.

1. Do we always attempt to do many things at the same time
2. Are we already thinking of the next task to do,
3. Are we living in a constant hurry to achieve,
4. Do we constantly indulge in thoughts about the past and the future, rather than consciously devoting time to the here and now matters?

When a barrage of stimuli overwhelms our attention; we lose contact with our self. When we do not make peace with our inner self and live under constant stress we only function in ways to risk good health and damage our soul.

Concentrate on coming to know yourself, found through a Psychosomatic and Psychotherapy study at the Dresden-Neustadt Clinic in Germany.
