Namaste...
I have been doing the online book study of Eckhart Tolle's "A New EArth" on Oprah's website and came across this suggestion as an exercise in correlation to chapter 9 and found it's message of mindfulness beautifully written.
To me, the depth of the joy in my Reiki work, is the depth to which I can experience it in the present moment.
All Blessings,

"Ask yourself: "Is there joy, ease and lightness in what I am doing?" If there isn't, then time is covering up the present moment, and life is perceived as a burden or a struggle.
If there is no joy, ease or lightness in what you are doing, it does not necessarily mean you need to change what you are doing. It may be sufficient to change the how. "How" is always more important than "what." See if you can give much more attention to the doing than to the result you want to achieve through it.
Give your fullest attention to whatever the moment presents. This implies that you also completely accept what is because you cannot give your full attention to something and resist it at the same time." Eckhart Tolle
