In this podcast we talk about the second aspect of presence. Generally, those who discuss this only deal with the physical and mental part of being “in the moment.” This means you are where you are, and you are also when you are. You practice NOT being somewhere else or somewhen else.

This second layer deals with the obligations and roles that we have voluntarily adopted. Father, mother, wife, husband, friend, business partner, mentor or whatever they are. When we are present to those things we wilfully and joyously re-affirm our choice to accept and fulfill the commitments that come with that. If we are not present top those, then we feel trapped and like “I have no choice.”
