being present makes you happier
A great little article today in the New York Times about a scientific study measuring people's happiness when their minds wandered. I find it interesting that ultimately the author dwells more on staying busy than the power of being present in whatever one is doing, and he does not touch on meditation practice. But in any case, worth a read, and a good reminder of what it costs us when we are not present.

ReplyDeleteI noticed the same thing and also enjoyed the article. It seemed like another version of chop wood and carry water, which keeps me afloat.
