    I’ve been practicing mindfulness for over 5 years and I really see the benefit of being present, both when alone (I don’t feel that at the end of the day I’ve “missed out” on my life-fewer regrets) and in the presence of others. I seem to have gotten over the vulnerability of being present with others. (Finally!) I can hear them and see them without feeling I HAVE to have a response at that moment. I can simply listen and stay open and accepting. All there is left is compassion, connection. I feel like I can take things slower and relish my time.

    as a symphony musician, i can testify that good conductors definitely have a presence that pulls everyone on stage with them together to create great works of art as a group. the great symphonies of western musical history definitely require presence for the team of a symphony orchestra led by the conductor to reproduce especially for an audience. great analogy for me to delve deeper into the idea of presence 🙂

    What a gift to find Janet on the program today and that her topic was presence was perfect. Her authenticity was palpable. Her capacity to engage in real time whether the tone was vulnerable or unlabashed was an affirmation of her many gifts and long standing commitment to practice and teaching. Few women can be both wild and elegant. Janet embodies both!
