"Presence embodies both mindfulness and a meditative focus that allows the mind to witness; to be the observer of what you become aware of."

In this episode of the WISDOM podcast, I dive into the practice of presence; of what it means to experience it; of how to 'hold' presence to what is in front of you; how to become a witness to everything unfolding in the absence of judgment; and to examine presence from the perspective of your nonphysical self. 

TRUTH SERUM:  Presence is your witnessing of what 'is', in this moment; in both your external environment and the infinite space of what you are as you look within.

A-HA MOMENTS:  To hold presence is to become a oneness with everything.

PRACTICAL WISDOM:  Develop a practice of presence as you take stock in what is important right now; and as you allow everything else to be – to be right here for you when you are ready to return to it. Then slowly everything gives away as you focus on the presence of this moment.
