Shift Awake: The Podcast

Last evening, every direction I turned seem to unleash a situation that I did not want...that is, until I returned to my breath and surrendered. Yes, it’s hard. Yes, it takes practice.

What kind of love could we create if we were more present?

Super Bowl Sunday is upon us and it got me thinking about competitive advantage. Think about how many times your mind is somewhere else when you’re in a meeting with your colleagues or when your partner is speaking and you’re dreaming of the vacation you want to take. We all slip into unconsciousness every so often but how is that serving us? What if we were conscious in as many moments as possible? How would that change the environment around us?
