If as adults we are the author of our own experience, then how do
                 we become fully present and fully available to navigate our journey
                 through life with conscious intention?

                 How do we find ways that will enable us to be actively and
                 consciously co-creative, mindful of our choices and indeed mindful
                 of the consequences of our choices?

                 The answer is Empathy.

                 Empathy isn’t simply a listening ear and something that we can
                 offer others. In essence, true Empathy is a state of being. When we
                 live Empathically, we can relate with our full experience of life at a
                 level of mindful and conscious awareness. Awareness of ourselves,
                 awareness of others, and awareness of a greater, universal
                 intelligence of which we are an integral and dynamic part.

                 Empathy is the very fabric of relatedness.

                 Living through Empathy IS living through relationship. It is about
                 being fully relational, and fully present to our entire experience.

                 When we engage with life through empathy we create a relational
                 connection with life itself.
