Alignment
Research has shown that mindful awareness combines Intention, Attention and Attitude (Shapiro et all., 2008).
Through my work with Art of Presence, I’ve built upon this model to also include Action and Impact because when you focus on how you want to be, it changes what you do and how you do it.
The Art of Presence is discovering how these components interact and support one another.
Intention — How do you want to be?
Attention — How do you stay focused on what truly matters?
Attitude — How do you want to feel?
Action — What’s your next inspired step?
Impact — What ripple effects are you creating?
This model bridges inner and outer transformation—
supporting you to show up in every space of your life with clarity and care.
Art of Presence Model Developed by Rachel Gilbertson.
based on research from Shapiro, S.L., Carlson, L.E., Astin, J.A., & Freedman, B. (2006). Mechanisms of Mindfulness. Journal of clinical psychology, 62(3), 373-386.
