Francesca Maxime: Journalist, Poet, Author

In today's #WiseGirl video chat, Brooklyn-based journalist, poet, and author Francesca Maxime talks about Presence versus distraction, attempts at control, and how if we truly believed there was nothing wrong with us -- with who we fundamentally are -- we may open to resting in the present moment and staying curious to what unfolds, rather than attaching ourselves to a preconceived or fixed notion of what we "should" be doing, or what is "right" based on efforts to control. #meditation #mindfulness #presence #control #letgo #beherenow #acceptance #relax #wisdom #discernment
