Renewable Presence: Begin Again Practice
FRIDAY, DECEMBER 29
10:00-11:00 AM ET
live online + recordings
The new year always has us thinking about new beginnings. But rather than a once-a-year-endeavor, I'd like to expand this idea of new beginnings to a morning ritual, even a moment to moment ritual. We have the power to bring our attention and awareness back again and again. To show up, renewed, over and over, so that can be with what is. The main ingredient and agent for change is presence.
1. It allows us to hold space for what is.
2. It allows us to be aware of what is in the space.
3. It is the ground from which we create, plant, and grow our intentions.
All of this is an act of love, a heart-centered practice, because the core of presence is mindfulness—and in Chinese one translation of mindfulness is present-heart.
We will use a simple practice to return our attention and presence to the now-moment — and begin again and again.

ABOUT THE SERIES
Our tension, discomfort, stress, and anxiety can make it feel impossible to feel present and open—especially these days. When we add on the distress that we have all been experiencing over the past several years, it's hard to imagine a time when we will feel resourced enough to show up in our lives and to connect with the world around us. How can we truly show up for ourselves and each other when we’re exhausted, on edge, or overwhelmed?
In this new practice series, we’ll explore mindful movement, restoratives, and compassion and Metta-inspired meditations that will balance our nervous system and garner more energy and stamina in service of meeting whatever arises with a wakeful and kind presence. Come join to bolster our ease, warmth, mood, energy, and even immunity and overall well-being.
We’ll create a foundation through the body and the senses, and then expand our awareness… gently attuning to the resonance of heart and bolstering our resilience as we open to the complex emotional experience and vulnerabilities we are carrying. Offering true presence—deep listening—to ourselves and each other not only changes the way we listen and feel heard but leaves others feeling more seen and heard as well. This is the greatest gift of our practice.
Plus, pair each practice with my FREE Friday Deep Listening Meditations at 9:30am ET.
