Is the pursuit of mindfulness sometimes a way to sidestep the deeper issues lurking beneath the surface? In this week's episde we explore the complexities of being truly present in our lives, especially when grappling with past traumas or contemplating uncertain futures. This episode digs into the often oversimplified notion of presence and challenges the idea that focusing solely on the now can sometimes lead to what's known as spiritual bypassing. By sharing a personal story that led me to reassess the importance of acknowledging all aspects of time—past, present, and future—we explore how trauma can freeze us in place and hinder genuine presence. 

Moreover, the conversation extends to embrace both the here and now as well as what lies ahead. By tuning into our inner and outer worlds, we discuss strategies for managing emotions and fostering personal growth, drawing parallels with a university student's anxiety about their career path. The notion of the "whisper of the soul" surfaces as a guiding light for introspection and life changes. I encourage listeners to find methods that resonate personally, reminding us all that navigating presence is about balancing experiences across time.
