Being and Doing. Do you think of these as separate states, mutually exclusive or even in conflict with one another? In this episode of Life is the Practice I am breaking down what it looks like to weave presence into our everyday lives. In the car. At the dinner table. Standing in line at the grocery store. There are simple ways to bring mindfulness and – when our minds stray – to guide ourselves back. In the present moment, we cultivate awareness and peace. The alternative? Letting our minds wander to random thoughts – which often deliver feelings of anxiety and fear about the future or regret about the past. We are exploring in this episode the possibility of using meditation to cultivate presence, inner presence and alignment while also functioning, as most of us must, among the noisy realities, goals and obstacles of everyday life. You will come away with resources to get started understanding how and when to integrate present moment consciousness – and why this is to our benefit, individually and globally. 


Are you longing to live in a place of inner peace, abundance, and confidence? Had enough of self-doubt, fear and a nagging scarcity mindset? Then I invite you to explore my online course. It integrates all the teachings I use in my 1:1 coaching practice and the wisdom I've acquired over 25 years of mindfulness and research. Welcome!
