The Presence Projects presents episode 75 of the "Are You Being Present?" podcast series. Join Paul for a podcast that focuses on two very different ways in which we can handle situations with people, places and things throughout our Present Moments.
The title and topic of this episode is “Are You Responding or Reacting in the Present Moment?". In this podcast Paul brings attention to the differences, and potential results, between a reaction or a response in the Present Moment. Reactions typically happen very quickly and are fueled by emotion while being led by the ego. They can cause a person to say and do things that are not in their best interest leading to undesirable collateral damage.
There are many reasons why reactions are so prevalent within the third dimensional matrix since this reality is filled with tension, stress, anxiety and adversity. Being in a state of reaction appears to be a more common form of societal, and interpersonal, interaction that leads to much suffering and negativity. Paul explains the need to pause, be Present and then initiate a response which can allow for a more neutral path. While it can be challenging at first to transition from reacting to responding the reduction in self-inflicted suffering with be notable and well worth the effort.

The title and topic of this episode is “Each Present Second Is a Gift". In this podcast Paul explains the importance of seeing each Present second as a gift that is to be cherished and treasured. Too often many of us distract ourselves, willfully and unconsciously, allowing Present seconds to pass us by and then end up in a state of lack and regret for losing these moments and worrying about the future moments to come. By viewing each Present second as a gift we can fully engage life in the moment providing us with the ability to choose what we want to do, when we want to do it and with whom we wish to do it with.
