Thich Nhat Hanh has a wonderful meditation for this, called The Hugging Meditation. It's very simple—all you do is hug someone three times, breathing in and out with awareness. The first time, you both think about how at some time, you don't know when, you will no longer be here. The second time, you focus on how, at some time, you don't know when, the other person will no longer be here. The third time, you truly take in that you are both here now, together in this precious moment.
