BEFORE WE BEGIN: I’m in an absolute writing tizzy. It’s the BEST, and it’s also terrifying. My only goal for this book right now is to NOT GIVE UP. Here’s the waitlist. Just by joining it, you give me lifeblood & courage. THANK YOU. Hoping to self-publish this puppy in summer / fall. PS - would anyone be interested in some more BTS content on this process? Tell me if you are & what you want to see in the book waitlist form!


Ok, I’m going to keep it short and sweet this Monday morning.

We meditate NOT to become really calm, serene, saint-like folks in those 20 minutes a day.

We meditate so that we can SHOW UP in the WILD of our Real Life.

(So many CAPS today, but I care so deeply about all this, so here we GO!).

Today’s meditation practice is a genius (if I do say so myself).

I created this 3-step meditation a few years ago and first taught it when 40 Early Mornings was a seasonal, live, group, virtual program. (We really had more fun meditating together than you might imagine 🤣).

Thanks for reading Let's Sit Together! This post is public so feel free to share it.

Today’s practice is SUPREMELY easy to remember. In fact, it’s impossible to forget. And if you practice it, I can actually promise you that it will work, even just a little bit. And that little bit can make a WORLD of difference when you need it the most.

Use this meditation when —

  • You’re neither here nor there. You’re in the room but you’re GONE - you’re plannicking (that’s my word for planning in a state of panic) on some future eventuality, you’re getting derailed by a self-sabotaging storyline, you’re just melting over that thing you said 7 years ago, or you’re making your grocery list in your work meeting. Whenever you realize you’re NOT PRESENT but you’d like to be, this practice will bring you back.

  • You’re STRESSED. The hits just keep on coming and you need an emergency roadblock to put up on the super highway to Fight, Flight, or Freeze. Consider today’s practice a tool in your anxiety tool belt. Our nervous systems are divine, but also ancient. This will help you outsmart autopilot when it was JUST an email or a headline or a gnarly thought.

  • You need to come back to yourself. For whatever reason: you’ve left the building, abandoned ship (yourself), or just can’t gather the shattered glass shards of your fractured attention to focus on what’s in front of you. TODAY’S MEDITATION WILL BRING YOU BACK!
