Conscious Living
A More Peaceful and Meaningful Life
Conscious living is a way of living that is driven by the intention to bring attention and care to your inner world and
to use that awareness to make purposeful choices about how you show up in society and in your life.
Humans have the beautiful gift of consciousness: the ability to be aware of our emotions, feelings, thoughts, internal
sensations, and environment. We don't always exercise this ability though. Rather, we often act in a reactive and
unconscious way to what we experience internally. This has a direct impact on our relationships with others and on on
our communities and environment.
By living consciously, we turn off auto-pilot and embrace the important role we play as empowered characters in our own
stories… characters with the ability to steer our sails in life's shifting winds. It can be easy to get caught in the
mundane, day-to-day tasks of life and feel that we're simply a character in a story that we didn't write. Though it's
true that life brings each of us scenarios and circumstances we don't have control over, it's also true that we always
have a degree of choice within those circumstances. Living in a conscious way means to recognize this choice and to take
action in making choices that lead to intentional outcomes.
