A 12-Minute Meditation for Noticing What's Present and What Isn't with Chris Willard and Olivia Weisser

This week, Christopher Willard and Olivia Weisser bring us a mediation inspired by the Japanese concept of ma, which refers to "the spaces between everything." This practice invites us to take the opportunity to explore the empty spaces that exist all around us and inside us.  For instance, we might think of the space between the plants in the garden, or between the notes in a song. It can also be emotional space, like the silences in a conversation. Or the little gaps between our thoughts and emotions.  Often, we don't even notice these empty spaces—but bringing our awareness to them can reveal new meaning and beauty. By exploring the space in-between through this mindfulness practice, we also enhance our creativity, noticing skills, and awareness.  We're also thrilled to announce our upcoming Community Connection Meditation Series, taking place from August 26th-30th, 2024!
