About this listen
People often say they feel fully here while doing just three things: travel, exercise, and sex. In these moments, presence seems effortless. But why does it become so laboured in everyday life?
This episode asks why being in the moment feels hard outside heightened or novel experiences. I explore 'being in the moment' not as a maxim, but as a psychological skill and a philosophical stance. Drawing from cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and everyday observation, we will discuss how much of our lives are spent replaying the past or rehearsing the future, and what has slipped away from us.
Get ready for a reflective episode about noticing, grounding yourself, and about learning to return, again and again, to what is already there, without being haunted by the phantoms in our heads.
