Notes on Paying Attention

Weekend Musings from Ashton

Friends,

I hope this finds you well — and available.

A few years back, I released a podcast episode titled “Notes on Paying Attention”, and it's less of a lesson and more of a soulful field guide — a reminder that where attention goes, energy flows. That perhaps the universe (or Reality, or God, or Love — whatever your name for the Mystery may be) is now accepting attention as its preferred currency. That the sacred, the astonishing, and the deeply human all live not out there in the distance, but right here, within and around us… waiting to be seen, enjoyed, and maybe even danced with.

It’s a conversation about presence, about reclaiming wonder, and about learning to listen — to your kids, your calendar, your inner life, and yes, even your customers. Because the real magic? It begins not in the doing, but in the noticing.

If you’ve ever felt like life was moving too fast, like you were missing something unnamed just outside your field of view — this one’s for you.

🎧 Listen to “Notes on Paying Attention” now
(or wherever you get your podcasts)

Let it be your permission slip this weekend: to slow down, to mentally declutter, and to become available to what’s been waiting for you all along. The Kingdom of peace and joy is near. The wildflowers are blooming. And the universe — well, it’s still in the business of astonishment.

Be well. Be available. And pay attention.

Warmly,
Ashton
