This moment right here is the path.
Meditation allows us to become more familiar with our lives. By resting our attention in the embodied moment, we come to appreciate how things are for us. These dishes. This meeting. That reaction. As our capacity to be present with and open to all of it deepens, we begin to understand and experience the path that is our lives.
This is the heart of what meditation has offered me through the years: a growing awareness that this moment, whatever it may be, is my only true path in life. This here-ness is my most reliable teacher and guide. Through the practice, I am called back to nothing more, nothing less than this.
Knowing how much this work has enriched my own life over the past several decades, I look forward to sharing the teachings and practices of embodied meditation with you in yours. Whatever your background or level of experience, you will find a range of opportunities and resources here – all intended to encourage and empower as you welcome and explore this moment right here, this path that is yours to live.
I hope you are inspired to join me,

Adjust Accordingly
This has not been an easy piece to write. My schedule is overfull right now. My to do lists are overburdened. Concerns about the present and worries about the future are robust and active. These are coming at me like the crows that sometimes dive toward my head each spring, mad with an intention it’s hard to outrun.
A Dynamic Practice
Bruce Cockburn is on tour right now. I’ve written before of the fact that, having followed his career for so long, every new release from this artist feels like checking in with an old friend. Since the advent of YouTube, every new tour provides something similar.
