Contemplations · the podcast

Bringing intention back to attention.

Contemplations is a podcast. Fifteen to thirty minutes an episode, on whatever the community sends in. The difference between living on autopilot and living deliberately is the quality of attention you bring to the moment you are actually in.

The show is coming back. No release schedule yet, on purpose.

What should I contemplate?

This is where the episodes come from. Not a content calendar — you. Send me the thing you’re actually sitting with and I’ll take it out loud.

Nothing is published with your name on it unless you ask.

Almost everything here started as somebody else’s question.

The channel on YouTube

Through contemplation, we integrate.
Wisdom

Contemplation is not meditation.

Meditation is the practice of witnessing the self. Contemplation is the practice of understanding it. Both matter. Only one of them is what this is.
