The need for "pause" is built into the nature of things -- between inhale and exhale as we breathe, between the beats of our hearts, and (as we hear in this episode) between "stimulus and response" throughout our lives. And yet it's so easy to neglect; it seems immensely difficult to actually do in any kind of consistent and meaningful way in the face of the relentless and frenetic pace of our days.

In this conversation, the members of the Milkweed Group (Kelli, Chris, Colleen, and Kelsey) explore with each other what pause means to us, why it's important, how it can take many different shapes. Whatever form it takes, however frequent or rare it might be, "pause" is crucial for helping us to shift how we see things, how we understand ourselves and our place in the bigger picture.
