09. Intentional Living

from The Slowdown · host Katherine Gluck | Embodiment and Mindfulness Guide

In this episode, we explore how intention is lived—not through big, dramatic changes, but through small, everyday moments. Using a simple story from my life, I reflect on how adding intention to what we already do can shift our experience in meaningful ways. You’ll be guided through a gentle somatic practice and invited to notice where small pauses and conscious choices might support you this week.Take a breath.
