DESCRIPTION
Working with people with dementia led to thinking about the attention we don‘t give to others on a daily basis - at all or only very little of it. We are distracted by our surroundings or social media messages on our smartphones. Although people with cognitive impairments can be perceived as challenging, here it is the other way around. You can learn absolute presence from them. They notice every moment of inattention.
The video asks viewers to be absolutely presenT for two minutes.
