A Pocketful of Presence

In this compact book, Carol LaRue offers simple words of wisdom and guidance in mindful living, presence, and resilience designed for daily application and practice. Written from her heart and personal experience, it encourages the reader to pay attention to thoughts, emotions, words, and actions and their effect on their whole being- body, mind, and spirit. In turn, practices of self-awareness, mindfulness, and self-care can help shift toxic and chaotic energy to feelings of peace and balance. Vitality and resilience is the result of making moment by moment choices that reflect what really matters to each individual in life. The small size of this book encourages the reader to carry and keep it handy for spontaneous and random reading and reflection on various mindfulness practices, such as gratitude, acceptance, nature, love, balance, patience, conscious breathing, etc. Included is a link to a short video with instructions on 'belly breathing' for relaxation.
