Abstract

Presence approach deals with the integration of our spirituality with the state of our physical body and brain. It focuses on a consciousness of here, not somewhere else, and in the present, not in the past or the future. Presence work can involve the practice of meditation, spiritual disciplines, and meaningful involvement in life and approach. It can also involve humanistic, existential, redintegration and experiential work of therapy.
