In this episode

About this episode

The great Stoic Marcus Aurelius wrote, “You could leave life right now. Let that determine what you do and say and think.” You would likely be completely present to the process of doing something if you knew it was your last time. Today's practice is intended to lead you toward the type of presence that allows you to witness the miracle of life’s smallest gifts.
