Today I Noticed: A Fun, Easy Mindfulness Practice That Will Change the Way You See the World

Week of September 20, 2025

Discover how the simple prompt, “Today I noticed” inspires a playful, creative mindfulness practice that boosts joy, connection, and gratitude—and makes our lives richer and more meaningful. And more fun, too!

The Today I Noticed mindfulness practice: Hear how two friends unexpectedly transformed their lives simply by paying attention … and how you can, too

Hear from Willow Older and Deborah Huber, the founders/authors of Today I Noticed, about how pausing to notice and record tiny, ordinary moments instantly grounds us in the present and makes life richer, more fun, and more memorable. After experiencing the power of paying attention firsthand during a creative “TIN” session, you’ll have everything you need to incorporate Today I Noticed mindfulness into your life back home. No art experience required.

Follow-up programs:

  • Today I Noticed: Amp up your awe by noticing the delights of nature—then release your inner artist

Strengthen your noticing muscles and tap into awe as you experience nature’s wonders during a short walk. Then, head back to the art studio to write and draw about your observations through a nourishing creative exercise. No art experience required. 

    • Content includes the powerful neuroscientific link between mindfulness, awe, and the outdoors, as well as sharing and discussing our observations.
  1. From a creative experiment to a published book: Learn about the Today I Noticed journey and then create your own “TIN”

Hear how Today I Noticed grew from a fun journal project between two friends to a popular book praised by Maria Shriver. After the authors share insights about developing a book, participants will enjoy noticing and recording their own observations and sharing what they’ve created with the group. No art experience required.

    • Content includes how to be deadly serious about a playful project; why working for free and taking risks are essential for building a brand; and why perseverance (and optimism!) is everything.
  1. Today I Noticed: Discover a simple strategy to dial up joy—and dial down stress and anxiety

Learn how simply paying attention to life’s little moments helps us tamp down stress and anxiety and dial-up joy and gratitude. We’ll explore the proven power of being present and its benefits—mental clarity, calmness, and optimism. A right-brain sketching activity will show us that we’re all artists in our own quirky, wonderful way! No art experience required.

    • Content includes discussion of the calming effect of “flow” experiences.
