Presence

The Art of Being at Home in Yourself

De: Tracy Cochran

Narrado por: Carrington MacDuffie

Mindfulness offers us a way to be fully in the present moment—and as we start to embrace this practice, we learn that our lives are made of present moments. That gift of presence is the palpable experience of awareness that appears when we remember to be mindful of those moments.

In twenty short chapters, meditation teacher Tracy Cochran encourages us to see presence as a living force—and to recognize and explore how that shows up in our lives. She offers riveting and relatable stories from her life—a spiritually transformative wine-making trip in France, a near-death experience while being mugged, managing her feisty child while on a retreat with Thich Nhat Hanh, among many others—and Buddhist teachings to encourage us to see the power of presence to illuminate and transform our past, present, and future. Cochran's observations and reminiscences are wise and pithy, and she gives us plenty of encouragement to explore and reframe our own experiences.

Beautiful

I really loved this. I didn't want it to end. The narration fit the material perfectly and made Tracy's point fun to follow. It's so brave to speak so much from personal experience rather than interpretation. You connect emotionally with the writer and the content feels authentic and generous.
