Welcome back, friend.
It’s been a little while. I hope you’ve been well. I’m writing to share something I’ve been quietly working on that I think you’re going to love.
To help us develop our presence shifting mastery more simply and more powerfully in 2026, I’m introducing a new format here at The Presence Shift beginning January 4th: Year of Presence:
Year-round, science-based training to live with more presence through five Inner Steps that become second nature.
Answer → Intend → Focus → Flow → Begin
When these five Inner Steps become second nature in your nervous system, you gain a reliable way to settle your body, bring your attention fully into the present, and flow into the next step of your day that matters to you—even in moments of anxiety, grief, conflict, or everyday stress.
Think of it as being able to Presence Shift yourself into a good day anytime.
Through our Year of Presence, I will guide your presence shifting with a comprehensive approach that leads you to feeling more fully present in your daily life.
Paid subscribers will receive access to the book and movie that Year of Presence, and audio Masterclass, and new weekly Presence Shifts as part of the Year of Presence system.
If you’d like to walk this Year of Presence with me, become a paid subscriber to get the full system as it launches.
Stay present,
Sean
