Hi y’all,

Micro-mindfulness can offer a path to presence and profound connections.

Most of us enter conversations ready to share our thoughts rather than genuinely hearing others. But as the theologian Henri Nouwen suggests, holding too tightly to our opinions leaves no space for genuine connection or growth.

Small moments of awareness can transform our interactions.

Micro-mindfulness, tiny, intentional practices, can teach us to listen, stay curious, and remain open to new perspectives. By pausing our need to respond and making room within, we can discover meaningful interactions and the fullness of life with others.

Let’s dive in.
