When COVID struck and my husband joined me in telecommuting full time, I recognized how often during the day he or I would walk into the other’s home office and just start talking or asking questions. Whoever’s office was barged into might have been in the middle of something but the [...]
Something for you to consider today - feeling grateful for the things that you don't have or for things that didn't happen. Often, I find myself focusing on things that I don't have…which leads to the feeling that I need to buy more, become more, give more, have more, be more and[...]
Committing to Practice Meditation Today is my meditation anniversary! It’s been 9 years that I have been meditating on a regular (mostly daily) basis. It is a part of my activities of daily living – just like showering, brushing my teeth, eating and walking. I have been pondering what [...]

I am only a few days away from taking a vacation during COVID. My last vacation was Thanksgiving weekend and I started a new job the day after I returned from it.

Feeling a bit stressed lately? Me too! I mean, c’mon – we are living in very stressful, chaotic and rapidly changing times which is filled by more uncertainty than the entire global community has ever experienced. Uncertainty and constant change can produce a lot of stress – in the mind [...]
We are being gifted with the opportunity right now to come back to what’s important. Connection with people; connection with self. To slow down, wake up and discover who we are and notice our interconnectivity with the world. We can actually PAUSE and reflect and take notice of how we are [...]

I sit here contemplating what I can possibly submit to this BLOG that might offer something that hasn’t already been suggested in many different places already navigating these COVID-19 Coronavirus times. I would like to share with you how I am staying present to what is here, and what I am [...]

"I don't write testimonials often, however my experience with Robyn Beckman is a must share, since I strongly believe she can help many people dealing with stress, anxiety or just hoping to improve their lives through the practice of mindfulness meditation. Robyn is a true MASTER mindfulness instructor; she has a great deal of experience that allows her to guide you and coach you in your mindfulness journey. Her keen ability to pin point areas of improvement and challenge allows the student to grow and be motivated in daily practice. Her compassion and empathy are limitless.
I am grateful and feel very lucky to have found her; she has been an important part of my personal growth and daily mindfulness awareness and practice."
