This practice guides us to a receptive, kind presence by starting with listening, and moving through a body scan. We then rest in an open awareness, responding to whatever arises with a gentle attention.   Our introduction music is from "Opening" by Adrienne Torf, © 2025 ABT Music

The portal to presence is awakening through the body from the inside out, and then opening to include sound in field of aliveness. This reveals  the awake space that everything's happening in; the space that lets everything be, just as it is. It's in that full allowing that we discover the center of now, that pure still presence that is the very source of our being. The meditation ends with an offering of prayer as that presence is experienced in the domain of the heart.   Our introduction music is from "Opening" by Adrienne Torf, © 2025 ABT Music

While we can't change our past, we have the capacity in this moment to remember our deepest intention and seed the future. Intention can become the compass of our heart, guiding and creating our life experience.   In these two talks we explore how we awaken mindfulness of intention and how, when we are caught in habits that create suffering, we can find our way home to the deep intention that heals and frees us. The two talks include reflections and practices that can bring the power of intention alive in your life.   Our introduction music is from "Opening" by Adrienne Torf, © 2025 ABT Music

In this guided meditation, we explore the power of intention—the quiet inner compass that reconnects us with our sincerity, our longing, and the truth of our own hearts. Through gentle breath awareness, a relaxing full-body scan, and an invitation to listen deeply inward, this practice helps us arrive in presence and remember what truly matters.   Our introduction music is from "Opening" by Adrienne Torf, © 2025 ABT Music
