We are not self-improvement-project’s, rather, we’re created with beauty and goodness for a purpose. Let’s live this way, and enjoy the inner peace that follows.

This year (well, in 2022) I found Byron Katie’s work and while I want to say I do not follow her work as a spiritual practice I do use a couple of her concepts as tools. One of those concepts is to do what she calls a “turnaround”. Turnarounds are when you take a thought and look at it from every possible angle and opposite and find a statement as true, or truer than what you had been thinking previously. This helps you release the stress a thought is causing you. Show notes: https://www.paige...
