Practicing The Present

Escape the tyranny of urgency and anxiety and learn to live fully present.

You know how sometimes you arrive somewhere in your car and don’t remember anything about the drive? You were on autopilot. Well, it turns out most of us live a lot of our lives that way–moving from one task to the next, one email to the next, one day to the next, only half present and missing a lot.

Practicing the Present teaches you to reclaim your everyday moments by engaging your ordinary present. Because as John Koessler points out, “It is the one who is fully in the moment and can be guided by the inspired intuition of the Holy Spirit that is best positioned for a breakthrough.” Koessler studies the life, prayers, and teachings of Jesus in order to present you with a thoroughly biblical perspective on the practice of mindfulness.
