"I deeply appreciate Jim's gentle, healing manner. I like his insight and helpfulness when he is working with people."
Ken Keyes, Jr., author: "Handbook To Higher Consciousness"
"I cannot put in words how much I appreciate the help I have received from Jim over the course of almost 20 years. His insight, compassion, wisdom, and humor have all helped me to overcome obstacles to personal growth and fulfillment and guided me through many tough times, showing me how to make the best of everything. He continues to teach me how to use mindfulness to turn my inner gremlins into allies, enabling me to grow up, get out of my own way, enjoy my humanity, and make every moment of this precious life matter. I feel the deepest gratitude for the opportunity to have him as my mentor on this life's journey. Namaste"
Don Matesz, L.Ac., Phoenix, AZ

MMM: Conscious Living, Conscious Dying
Conscious Living, Conscious Dying
The moment is a portal to the infinite. Making the Moment Matter is a path towards deepening your relationship to who you are as you meet each moment, which, in turn, enriches what you get out of every moment. In Making the Moment Matter: Conscious Living, Conscious Dying, you are invited to deepen your appreciation of your existence – the clear deep pool of all your moments – in the context of existence itself.
Conscious Living, Conscious Dying is an 8-week class designed to help people integrate their lives by viewing their various developmental stages and pivotal phases from a more conscious and comprehensive perspective. This integration serves as the basis of understanding from which to explore who they are in addressing the end of their lives.
…You are like a writer having written an unfinished story based on a likewise unfinished central character. By looking at the events and factors that define this character – from being the writer rather than the character – themes come into better alignment leading you to a more meaningful culmination of the story.
The process involves short lectures, group discussions, and experiential exercises. Occasional homework will consist of short writings, visual charts, interviews, and practical application of insights and exercises.
This program is for anyone seeking answers to the bigger questions in life as well as people facing the immanent death of themselves or a loved one. It is for people who have survived a Near-Death-Experience who wish to make sense of what they experienced, both during and since the incident. And it is for people dealing with end of life issues, or simply seeking purpose, meaning, or fulfillment at any stage of life.
It has been a source of blessing and service that, for whatever reason, death has been a very rich and present part of my life since I first held the hand of someone dying and talked them through the transition when I was five – an event that has been repeated several times since then. — Jim Lehrman

Making the Moment Matter...
There is no escaping having “a story”. It’s what sustains our myth of a consistent identity from one moment to the next, enabling us to pay our bills and brush our teeth. A goal of my work is to give you the understanding and tools to locate yourself outside your story, from where you can have better perspective, respond more effectively, and experience the joy of freedom. Just because ‘all God’s chillun’ gotta have a story doesn’t mean you have to be lost in yours.
To help people get beyond their stories and become their own therapists, I created Making the Moment Matter and authored its accompanying workbook in 1994. Since then the program has helped people from many stages of life get bigger than whatever the universe throws their way. I am currently finishing up the book, "Making the Moment Matter; An Introduction to the Alchemy of Experience".
