122. How to Have Everyday Awakenings with Catherine Duncan
Sometimes we’re so wrapped up in the past or worried about the future that we forget how to really live in the present. In this episode we talk with Catherine Duncan about How to Have Everyday Awakenings. Catherine shares her unique perspective on living in the moment – not only having experienced two near-death experiences of her own, but also while serving as a hospital chaplain. We discuss some of the surprising things she learned about living from her interactions with terminal patients, how even newbies can take small steps to ground themselves in the present, and how Catherine herself starts each new day of life.
