OAdventures in mindfulness & imagination
presence & possibilities
that let you feel, think and act in new ways
presence + possibilities
cultivating
curiosity
about ourselves
and
for other ways of being
in the small moments
of life
is what allows for big changes to occur.
It allows us
to be
limitless
but we have to know how...
...how to make curiosity and playfulness our default mode

more about the possibilities practices
“My favorite word is “understanding.” I know it’s somewhat colder than the word “compassion” or “empathy”…I believe that when you understand, you are left with no option but to change in some way.”
-mhazrine banaji, psychologist, harvard
“It is highly possible that what is called 'talented behavior' is simply a greater individual capacity for experiencing. From this point of view, it is in the increasing of the individual capacity for experiencing that the untold potentiality of a personality can be evoked."
-viola spoolin, founder, second city
Playfulness is the key to feeling safe enough to try to understand a perspectives.
To understand themselves, each other, and their world, children play. (And this is serious play. Survival play. Yet playful play.)
The more they play and explore different ways of thinking, feeling, and being in the world the more robust their ability to create, navigate, connect, and innovate becomes.
As adults we can play too, for the same reasons.
We just need to remember how.
Supermindfulness' practices remind us.
HOW plaY
creates possibilities
how UNDERSTANDING
fuels
creativity
The more ways of thinking, feeling, and being we have experienced the more colors we have on our pallet of possibilities. So the more creative and collaborative we can be in creating our lives.
When we learn how to experience more ways of thinking and feeling curiosity becomes our default and creative resilience becomes our norm.
Supermindful practices show us how.

presence practices
"All experience is data."
-ed schein, leadership, mit
The more we can be with our own experience with curiosity and care in the small, everyday moments of our lives, the more of our whole, full selves we can hold, the safer we feel just being ourselves and the more playful we can be.
We learn to mine our experience of being for its richness and wisdom.
As we learn to attune ourselves to ourselves, to how the world around us affects us and how we affect it, we experience how we are connected to the greater whole of everything and everyone.
We see that everything is in us and we are in everything. That we truly are limitless. Not perfect. Whole.
Then the whole of us can flow with the whole of life.
Supermindful practices show us how.
