Death on the Daily How a Daily Practice of Presence Can Change Your Life
Today I’m exploring the profound impact of presence in navigating grief and difficult life circumstances - and everyday life in general!
Drawing from my personal experiences with the death of my daughter and my grief, she emphasises the importance of being fully present, both for ourselves and others, as a means to foster emotional healing and connection.
