My Six Degrees of Meditation: Leadership
This course is intended to be an opportunity to pause and reflect by incorporating the learning and insight of meditation.
You might be wondering why leadership as it relates to meditation. The institute of mindful leadership defines a mindful leader as “someone who embodies leadership presence by cultivating focus, clarity, creativity and compassion in the service of others.” That is who I strive to be. It is a journey of learning, awareness and growth. Leadership is really about presence, connection and empathy.

My Six Degrees of Meditation: Creativity
Creativity is defined as “the ability to make new things or think of new ideas.“ I love the simplicity of this definition. This session is all about you. It is about stretching and growing yourself to dig deep, to look at a situation from a different perspective and to try something you might not have ever tried before.

My Six Degrees of Meditation: Present Moment Awareness
A Beginner’s mind is defined as “having an attitude of openness, eagerness, and lack of preconceptions when studying a subject, even when studying at an advanced level, just as a beginner would.” Consider how you can incorporate more present moment awareness into your everyday. What do you need going forward to sustain and enhance your present moment awareness? What do you need to be curious and present? What do you need to explore the world with a beginner’s mind?
