This week on the Sit, Walk, Work podcast, we drop into a guided meditation that begins with a simple moment:
When my employee responded to “How are you?” with “I’m here,” it gave me pause. I honored the honesty but also gently offered a shift in perspective: “You’re here—and that’s something. Someone else didn’t get that chance today.”
That exchange became a reminder of just how fragile and miraculous this moment is.
In this episode, I guide you through a practice that brings us back to what matters—not perfection, not productivity, but presence. We move through body awareness, heart-centered breathwork, and a spacious flow of metta—loving-kindness for ourselves and eventually for those around us.
You’ll hear reminders like:
Refinement over judgment
Presence over progress
Patience over perfection
And through it all, an invitation to begin again. And again.
🎧 Episode Highlights:
Body scan to observe tension and release
Heart-centered breathing to cultivate metta
Working with distraction using the art of “beginning again”
Expanding compassion from self to others
Resting in equanimity and the power of simply being
🌀 Favorite Reflection from the Episode:
“It doesn’t need to be perfect to be okay. It is what it is now.
And that can change as soon as the next breath.”
💭 Questions for You:
What part of your practice do you find yourself judging—and what would refinement look like instead?
How do you remind yourself it’s okay to begin again?
I’d love to hear how this landed with you—feel free to hit reply or join the discussion in the comments.
Until next time,
With metta,
Dominic
