In this short teaching video from the Plum Village app https://plumvillage.app/ , Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh talks about the importance of staying in the present moment especially during difficult times.

"... go home to the present moment."

"... next time when you find present moment not pleasant, don't think that running away from it is the best way. It may be a chance. So stay in that moment. Look deeply into the nature of your suffering.
If you know how to practice mindful breathing, mindful walking, generating the energy of mindfulness. And then, that energy of mindfulness generated by practice helped you to be strong enough to recognize encountered pain and embrace it tenderly..."
