I listened to this course while reading Suzuki Shunryu’s book, Beginner’s Mind. Derek’s course reinforced the reading and helped me integrate the message from that book in a more secular and practical manner. This is a great course and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is interested inin living more mindfully and with new perspectives.

Using perceived newness to be present again. That’s what I gather. Definitely implementing this strategy.
