Thriving in Plain Sight

We have choices throughout the day. A moment of intention can change what becomes possible. Together, in this brief moment, we interrupt inertia, activate agency, and warm up to wonder. We are alive and well.                                                                                                

About this podcast

We are thriving in plain sight: celebrating awareness, embodiment, and tiny treasures. In a matter of moments, we can recapture our attention. Suddenly, we remember we have agency. We have choices. We adjust and shift our posture and orientation to life, flowing organically and cultivating the art of noticing, responding, and letting go.

You’re becoming masterful, quietly. It’s not noticeable—until it is. Keep taking tiny steps. One day, in a seemingly unremarkable moment, you’ll discover that you’ve been moving forward all along, gently transforming your experience of life. 

Drop your shoulders. Notice if you *can* drop your shoulders. The noticing is the practice. Somatic awareness is subtle, accessible, and powerful. Do this gentle, simple practice throughout the day.

It takes a little while to land where we are—to actually notice what we’re doing and what we need.

In this episode, we practice giving ourselves the time we need for the simplest of gestures: taking a breath.

By moving at your own pace, you get to know yourself in a new way. Let's practice being present.

In this episode, we do the subversive and scandalous work of pausing for inordinately long periods of time. Wasteful! Unacceptable! And possibly delicious. Repeat the episode a few times for the full effect.

If you're a person who “doesn’t have time,” experience a taste of time luxury inside of this short, less-than-eight-minute episode.

This week, we celebrate 100 episodes and have a heart-to-heart about the world and our place in it. Why do we do this practice? What does it unlock for us? Right beneath the surface of life's activity is a wealth of personal agency. Can we get quiet enough to recognize it?

About this podcast

Welcome to Thriving in Plain Sight. Each week, we take a few moments to practice being present. We pause and notice. We stop and feel. We recapture our own attention.

You belong because you're here. 

We're learning to honor the creative impulse of noticing, feeling, and being. Take a break from the chatter. Cultivate clarity...about who you are and what matters most.

The noise of modern life can shape our perceptions. We encounter distractions, chaos, and busyness. Our simple embodiment practice is our somatic hygiene. We pause for a moment. We interrupt inertia. We breathe. We see more, hear more, and feel more. We recognize the humble power of intention and incremental transformation.

The beauty of our weekly embodiment practice is that it's quiet, gentle, and gradual. For a few seconds at a time, we practice relaxing into present-moment sensation. Over time, we deepen our capacity for being alive. We see more, hear more, and notice more.

Quietly, we unwind and neutralize powerlessness, not by trampling boundaries or soldiering through difficulty, but by relaxing into what we're experiencing right now. We remember that we have choices. We make room for the physical sensations that accompany tender moments of stuck-ness and doubt and grief and not knowing. 

Posture is a metaphor as well a literal somatic experience. How are you "holding" yourself in this moment? Adjust. Align. Get curious.

It's more important than ever to find our footing as the chaos around us ensues. Let's practice together. Skip to minute 10:30 for this week’s somatic practice. Tune in from the beginning to hear my thoughts on why it helps to feel what we're already feeling. Share this episode with someone who needs it.

Find your footing in the eye of the storm. Land. Arrive. Breathe. 

Noticing that you have choices is powerful and unusual. This is the benefit of our embodiment practice.
