We are always between one event and another — waiting for the weekend, the big vacation, retirement, the release of a new movie or book. Can you notice the frustration that so often accompanies waiting and just … let it go? You might have to let it go more than once. That’s OK — it’s good practice.

Try this meditation for one minute every day, or longer if you want to:

I STOP “WAITING” and tune into the present moment. I notice and accept where I am, and let things come.
