This talk explores how to begin a mindfulness practice by starting exactly where you are. Rather than striving for a particular state or trying to "do it right," we look at how mindfulness arises through simple remembering—the act of returning to presence, again and again. We'll reflect on how the breath can become a reliable ally, how intention can quietly shape our experience, and how there's no wrong way to begin.

We'll explore four key themes: (1) how mindfulness is the practice of remembering presence, (2) the power of starting just as you are, without needing to fix or change anything, (3) how setting intention deepens and sustains your practice, and (4) the breath as a steady anchor in the midst of life's swirl. Through stories, guided reflection, and practical tools, you'll learn how to plant the seeds of a lifelong practice.
