Attention Refresher

In this 15-minute video for The Foundation for Conscious Living, I guide you through a few different ways to refresh your awareness and add appreciation to how you’re using your attention. Although some of the instruction is about giving your attention to other people on a call, you can just give your loving attention to whatever is right in front of you. Enjoy!


Appreciation As a Renewable Fuel

In this 1-hour class we will play with the power of appreciation. Bringing our exquisite awareness to our surroundings can provide new perspectives and refresh our energy. Though this was recorded mid-pandemic, appreciation can be a wonderful fuel whether we are in times of stress or times of ease.


Fostering Inner Stability

In this one-hour class, we explore 5 gateways to dynamic stability. Inner steadiness as we ride the waves of change in the world and in our lives allows us to be well-resourced instead reactive. Learn five ways to do so from wherever you are.


Choosing Action for Our Planet with F.A.C.T.

In this 1-hour class, Michele Yasuda and I share how to use F.A.C.T in our relationship with the planet. How often do we have or make time to give focused attention to our relationship with the planet? F.A.C.T. is a formula for transformation that you can use when you catch yourself avoiding the issue of sustainability. The process helps us create shifts by taking us out of our “figure it out” brain into openness to wonder and discovery.


I hope you have found these videos to be uplifting and of use! If they inspire you to want coaching or individual instruction, please reach out to set up a no-cost exploratory session so we can design a program to meet your needs. Thank you.
