If you have kids, you know how absorbed they can become in what they are doing

Imagine a child colouring a picture. They colour the picture “mindfully”, carefully choosing the next colour and where to put it. They are not thinking about what they have planned tomorrow or next week. They are not thinking about their allowance and what they might spend it on.

Nothing else matters to them except what they are doing at that moment.

Some adults have found a way to be mindful. Some are mindful when they exercise, scrapbook or play the guitar. Some take reading a book seriously and find a nice quiet spot where they cannot be disturbed.

This mindfulness brings a sense of peace to your life. A sort of meditation. Your breath comes easy, your thoughts are following along one path and not 26, and you are content.

What if you tried to infuse “mindfulness” in everyday, seemingly mundane, activities?

What would happen?

Well, in the book “The Miracle of Mindfulness” by Thich Nhat Hanh there is a small excerpt that talks about washing the dishes, to WASH the dishes.

This appealed to me. I wash a lot of dishes. My mother still comments that I am crazy not to own a dishwasher. But no matter how hard I try, I cannot convince her that it doesn’t take that long to wash them, so I really don’t mind doing it.

With that said, there are those times when I am washing the dishes and my mind is overflowing with ideas, concerns, and I am not washing the dishes to WASH the dishes. I am washing them to get them done, so I can move onto the next task.

This, quickly moving from task to task to task, is what is driving the “machine.” People always feeling rushed. But being “mindful” of your task helps to slow the machine and you can enjoy your life.

When driving, eating, or even walking today, try and enjoy the moment for what it is and don’t get sucked into constantly thinking four moves from now. Be mindful of the moment.
