Whimsy as a Wellness Tool: 5 Weird Ways I Stay Present
Most of us aren’t ungrateful. We’re just moving too fast to notice.
In this episode of the Magic Made Podcast, Megan Holly shares five quirky, surprisingly powerful ways she stays present in everyday life, especially in seasons where everything feels fast, noisy, and a little too “go-go-go.”
If you’ve ever looked back at a week (or a month) and thought, Wait… what did I even do?, this conversation is for you. Megan reminds us that presence is a practice, not a personality trait, and that small, simple moments can bring us back to ourselves, our senses, and our actual life.
In this episode, we talk about:
- Why we slip into autopilot (and how to interrupt it gently)
- How “presence compounds” and becomes easier over time
- Using tiny rituals to create moments of grounding throughout the day
- The difference between numbness and normal busyness
- How to be more present with yourself, your people, and your life
Megan’s 5 “weird” presence practices include:
- Choosing an intentional cue in a mundane moment (like picking a specific gas pump)
- Sending a quick protection thought/prayer when you hear sirens
- Noticing a “rainbow light” ritual and letting it create a real human moment
- Savoring “the last bite” to practice joy and autonomy in tiny ways
- Opening a door or window daily to shift energy, reset your home, and reconnect with nature
✨ Reflection prompt:
What’s one tiny moment in your day you could turn into a presence cue?
