Be mindful of the signals in the noise
Hello, y'all,
Here are some insights from the week: seeking clarity amid distractions, building a curious mindset in analog mode, and the value of a regular cadence for self-reflection.
Mindset
Spend 10 minutes a day without your smartphone to build a curious mindset.
No matter how chaotic your day may be, practice showing up to focus on what matters (inspired by Greg McKeown).
Mindfulness
If you need some encouraging self-talk to strengthen your determination today, this is for you.
As a nun, I learned the value of personal reflection for significant growth in your life. Part One and Part Two.
Spirituality-in-the-Moment
When you are stuck and overwhelmed by distractions, ask yourself: What is not clear? Where do I need clarity? Here are a few reflections on the spiritual practice of seeking clarity.
Sunday Fervorino for the First Sunday of Lent - Lent means "spring," the 40-day journey of getting ready for new growth, new life, and a lot of transformation within the depths of our being. What is it you really want? Where are the places of vulnerability in your heart, opportunities to say "yes" to God and allow God to walk the path with you? (Fervorino means "little sermon." These are short video reflections of inspiration and encouragement to ponder during the week, based on the Sunday Gospel readings from the Roman Catholic Lectionary).
Quote to Ponder
If you think you’re too small to make a difference, try sleeping with a mosquito. – Dalai Lama
I appreciate you all being part of the journey, and I hope you have a great week.
