We are often told to live in the present, a temporal frame which grounds up in the now. The reason this is important is that it is easy to dwell on our regrets in the past and worry about future events that may not even happen. When we live with regrets and anxiety, we deny ourselves the happiness that come from centering ourselves in the now. Nothing dispels fear and anxiety more effectively than finding joy in the present moment as we talked about recently with Ryan Stanley.
But there is a difference between being in the present and coming to the Presence which goes beyond the temporal grounding of our human experience in the here and now, to an all-encompassing experience of everything good, kind, and benevolent. In this episode, I talk to P.J. about what being in the Presence means, how to know we are there, and how to get there. This is an inspirational episode about finding our power in something much greater than ourselves by finding the source of goodness.
