In this captivating episode of Transcendent Minds Podcast, we welcome Harry Sherwood, a remarkable Presence and Wholistic Life Coach, who has dedicated his life to seeking enlightenment and deepening his connection to the present moment. With a rich background that includes living with and learning from monks, yogis, martial arts masters, and psychologists, Harry brings a wealth of wisdom and experience to our discussion.

During our conversation, Harry introduces us to "The Game of Presence," a transformative practice centred around two fundamental questions: "Are you in the room?" and "Can you stay in the room?" He shares how this game challenges individuals to bring their attention fully into the present moment and stay engaged with their senses, thereby quieting the mind and cultivating a direct experience of reality.

As we explore the essence of The Game of Presence, Harry delves into the role of the mind and its propensity to create an overlay of reality that can disconnect us from the true experience of life. He shares insights on how we can transcend this mental construct and establish a deeper connection to the Universe, ultimately leading to a profound sense of oneness with all that is.

In addition to discussing the philosophy and principles behind The Game of Presence, Harry also unveils his ambitious project, "The Game of Presence Project." This groundbreaking multi-year documentary will follow Harry's personal journey as he commits himself to playing the game and seeking enlightenment. Through monthly episodes, we will witness Harry's transformation and learn about the various activities and practices he will undertake to support his path, including meditation, nature meanders, circling and presence practice, energy practices, ecstatic dance, song and prayer, exercise, and mindful eating.

Harry shares the activities he will consciously avoid, such as social media, streaming services, reading and writing, non-circling social contact, and unhealthy coping mechanisms. By eliminating these distractions, he aims to deepen his focus and connection to the present moment.

One of the highlights of our conversation is Harry's insightful explanation of Circling & Presence Practice, a profound way of connecting with others in the present moment. He explores the power of self-knowledge and self-awareness, the healing potential of authentic connection with others, and the importance of embracing the unknown in our relationship with reality.

Throughout the episode, Harry's passion and dedication to The Game of Presence shine through, as he articulates his hopes and intentions for the docuseries accompanying his journey. 

He seeks to offer viewers an authentic glimpse into the challenges and rewards of a devoted spiritual path, to inspire a sense of purpose and passion
