our philosophy…

breathe.

In our busy modern lives, full of distraction and demands on our attention, we all need more room to breathe, to slow down and to unwind. Join us anytime, anywhere with our On Demand video library of meditations to feel the power of the pause.

on demand

connect.

People are more connected than ever before through technology, but feel more isolated, lonely, and a longing for authentic connection. At Pause to be Present™, we have a welcoming online community where we gather virtually every day and feel the power of group meditation, learn from expert teachers, and connect inward to ourselves and to each other.

live classes

be.

Sometimes we need time to just be present, to stop “doing” all the time and instead to sit and listen to the wisdom, the strength, and the connection we can feel when we practice simply “being.”
