Cultivate Presence


embroidered stitch meditation by Linda A. Miller

 

Life today is filled with ongoing stimulation, distraction and uncertainty.  Add in the inevitable changes due to aging, illness or mobility, and it is easy to become overwhelmed.  What happens to your sense of balance when the bottom drops away?

Stress affects us all, no question.  Scientific studies are showing that mindfulness can improve physical and mental well-being, or that taking a walk reduces stress.  When faced with challenges, I, too, need to remind myself to slow down and feel the breath.  Movement, yoga, meditation, and mindful creative process all help me to feel more fully embodied again.  Applying simple practices slowly diminishes stress patterns, so I can meet life as it is.

I bring the full range of my experience as yoga teacher, meditation practitioner, and artist to the classes I lead.  My focus is to encourage individuals to discover the appropriate tools for their specific needs.  Whether it is gentle yoga or contemplative creativity, the intention is to return to the senses in the present. It is an act of self-kindness.  It is about learning to dance with groundlessness.
