Episode Details

Transformation happens when we become aware of experiences because awareness allows us to observe ourselves and our surroundings without judgment.Awareness is a fundamental aspect of consciousness, which is the state of being awake and aware of one’s environment and existence. The Vietnamese Buddhist monk Thich Nhat Hanh beautifully captures the essence of awareness: “The moment you are aware of something, that very awareness begins to transform you.” 

Join Lisa and Michael as they explore what turning on your “light of awareness” means. It is not only about becoming consciously aware of our thoughts, feelings, and surroundings, it involves a heightened state of mindfulness where we observe our inner and outer experiences without judgment. We will be delving into how this awareness allows us to live in the present moment, make more informed decisions, and respond to life’s challenges with greater clarity and intention. Awareness enriches life by providing a deeper understanding of oneself and the world, leading to a more fulfilling and meaningful existence. By cultivating awareness, we become the master of our own experience. We shed light on the world within and around us, leading to a life filled with greater clarity, appreciation, and connection.

"The whole idea of compassion is based on a keen awareness of the interdependence of all these living beings, which are all part of one another, and all involved in one another.”  – Thomas Merton
