Podcasts about catching your breath the sacred journey

Today, I have the privilege of speaking to you on the topic of Hope.   Hope - but what the heck does that even mean?    Hope is an elusive concept: like trying to hold water in your hands or get Jello to sit still. Just when you think you’ve got it, the mystery of hope slips right through your fingers.    But I’ve spent the past year (since I was with you last) researching hope, and I’m so excited to share a bit of what I’ve learned with you today.   Show notes: You can read more David’s work and pre-order his new book of poetry, The Wrestle, at his website, DavidTensen.com  Making Hope Happen: Create the Future You Want for Yourself. Catching Your Breath: The Sacred Journey from Chaos to Calm. https://amzn.to/3k9Z9Kh Download Steve's free self-care journal here - https://catchingyourbreath.com/free-self-care-journal/   Reflection questions:   What would happen if we learned to live in the tension of both sides of Jesus’s statement, understanding that earthly life is suffering, but eternal life is joy? What is one way you can be kind to yourself as you consider starting this journey toward embracing and enduring suffering, in order to find hope and healing? What is one thing in your life—a pet, a skill, a person, a memory—that brings you moments of joy in your pain? Can you hold it in your mind, letting yourself feel the goodness of it like a cat basking in the sun? What is one vulnerable thing you can share with one safe person today? Get gut-level honest about what you need right now, and then don’t be afraid to share that information with your doctors and others in your inner circle.
