Thank you so much for joining us for our December Mentor Conversation, led by the amazing Elizabeth Brett!

We dove into the theme of presence with a beautiful invocation of the goddess of love.

Here's a quick recap of what we explored:

✨ Key Takeaways

  • Presence isn’t about doing more; it’s about being fully here. Embodied practices help us drop into the moment.

  • Slowing down doesn’t have to take more time—but it does invite more depth and joy into everyday life.

  • Self-love and compassion are essential when working through trauma or coping mechanisms that pull us away from the present.

  • Small, simple moments of presence throughout the day can be just as powerful as trying to stay "on" all the time.

💖 Archetypal Work

Elizabeth introduced us to archetypes—ways of connecting to specific energies within ourselves and the divine.

  • We worked with the goddess of love archetype to drop out of our heads and into our senses.

🌱 Guided Meditation & Sharing

Elizabeth led us in a grounding meditation to connect with the earth. Some heartfelt reflections:

  • One participant saw herself as a "big, fat, luscious bear," feeling full of resources and contentment.

  • Another shared a sense of air and fire but also a fear of not being enough.

  • Someone else expressed gratitude as her inner child felt seen and healed.

🧴 Sensory Practices

We engaged our senses through simple, grounding practices:

  • Using essential oils to notice scent and texture while tuning into where the body craved touch.

  • A mindful eating and drinking exercise that invited us to savor taste and texture.

These showed us how easy it is to weave presence into everyday moments.

🌀 Trauma & Coping

  • We talked about how lack of presence is often tied to trauma responses.

  • Elizabeth reminded us to meet ourselves with love when coping mechanisms arise.

  • Honoring all parts of ourselves is key to cultivating presence.
