In this episode: a companion meditation to episode 250 with Lance Diaresco, breath awareness, becoming, connection, contribution with Adam Coelho
Episode Summary
Who are you becoming, beyond what you are accomplishing?
In episode 250, “Define Enough and Design Your Next Chapter,” Lance Diaresco joined me to explore moving from career to calling, defining enough, and creating a life with greater meaning. In this companion episode, I invite you to bring one of the ideas from our conversation into your own experience through a guided meditation.
We begin by settling into the breath and practicing the simple act of noticing, returning, and beginning again. Then we explore the three questions in Lance’s “me, we, world” compass:
• Me: Who am I becoming?
• We: How am I connecting?
• World: How am I contributing?
There is no need to force an answer. This practice offers space to notice what arises, envision how you want to connect and contribute, and feel into the life you are creating with kind, curious awareness.
You can enjoy this meditation on its own or listen to my conversation with Lance in episode 250 (https://mindfulfire.org/250) for the ideas behind the practice.
