Live in the Present: A Mindful Approach to Life
Inspired by Bronnie Ware's work with palliative care patients, this program helps you focus on present moment awareness and reduce future regrets. We'll explore common regrets, build mindfulness practices, and develop strategies for taking action, all grounded in behavioral science and habit formation principles.

Take Action Today
Identify one small, achievable step towards a meaningful goal. Use the habit formation cycle (cue, craving, response, reward) to plan your action. For example, set a reminder (cue) to trigger the desired behavior (response), anticipate the satisfaction (craving), and then acknowledge your progress (reward).
