Have you ever driven somewhere and realized when you reached your destination that you didn't remember how you got there? Have you ever been in a conversation and realized you had no idea what he or she just said? Do you find yourself staring at the wall? Do you ever feel anxious but have no idea why? If you answered yes to any of these questions you may be living in your head more than in the moment. When we are "in our heads" our attention is usually focused on the past or the future. We think about the things we have said or done and what we should have done differently. We think of upcoming events and run through our list of to-do's. Being in our heads can increase our stress levels, rob us of the joy of the moment, negatively impact our relationships and lower our job performance.
