Join host Rohini Walker into an exploration of sacred attention as a valuable resource and life-affirming offering. In a world consumed by distraction and speed, our attention has become commodified, fragmented, and pulled in countless directions. What happens when we reclaim it? When we slow down enough to offer our presence as an act of devotion, of relationship, of reciprocity?

Rohini explores the idea that attention is not only a sacred resource but also a portal - into connection, aliveness, and the animist understanding that we are in relationship with all things. She unpacks the somatic effects of fragmented attention, the difference between “getting” and “receiving,” and how the simple and foundational act of pausing can repair and reweave the threads of our inner and outer worlds.

This episode is an invitation to consciously wield your attention with care and reverence, and to experience how doing so can open up space for healing, integration, and transformation. It’s about returning to a more relational, soulful way of being, where our presence is both an offering and a receiving.
