How to Pay Attention
Share

Hello from Savary Island, British Columbia!

We are here at my in-laws cabin for the week enjoying nature and deep rest. Yesterday I ended my work day with time on the paddle board. To say I feel grateful would be an immense understatement. This time of year brings new blooms and colors that I have not seen here before, and it’s helping me to pay close attention to how even the most familiar of landscapes change subtlety and consistently. Which is the theme for this week:

How do we pay attention, and what do we pay attention to?

I hope you find this week’s educational instructions on developing more acute attention helpful. I look forward to hearing in the comments how this feels for you!

Be well,

The Attentive Part

The Yellow blooms are hard not to pay attention to this time of year…
