Waking Up to the Map (Quest for Presence)

Please visit us on PatreonA unique treasure map might lead us to a healthier relationship with time. We contemplate this map together in this podcast series. Clock-time is only one view of time. If we do not know about other views, we limit our more profound experience of life in both our private and public worlds. In this episode, we first talk about the negative impact of time pressure on our health, environment, and society. But the treasure map provides a bigger picture of healthy time and deep time, and includes spirituality, ancient wisdom, science, intimacy, and preciousness as well as many other treasures of this happening life. Four explorers or “time weavers” draw wisdom for this vast literature and describe their own approach to this map, based on the book “The Connoisseur of Time: An Invitation to Presence” (or ‘CoT’ by Joel Bennett). Kristie Ellison focuses on the importance of waking up to embrace and flourish from the here and now. Art Wimberly brings many years of experience as a spiritual coach and person in recovery and working with the Enneagram. Ronnie Gatrey brings us back to the treasures through his own experience of his day. Joel Bennett, the author, brings his experience to create a community of time-weavers, including you.Waking up to the map is an invitation. This quest for presence is an invitation. In this episode you are invited to just get a sense of the big picture. To take a peek. Our approach to time is interdisciplinary and experiential. You are invited to your own presence.This episode – as many others -- also refers to insights from diverse areas of our culture and literature. Here we refer to modern music (Pharrell Williams), the Old Testament, Spirituality & Health Magazine, and the new book Waking up to the Dark (by Clark Strand), (#clarity, #siezetheday, #clutch, #spontaneity, #genius).Visit us at www.presencequest.life
