Fully Alive Spiritual Practice for March 27


Palliative care physician Kathryn Mannix once told a story about exploring emotions, one layer at a time. She would gently ask, "What's underneath that sadness?" and let the answer reveal itself.

If you're feeling off, maybe just take a moment to check in with yourself. You don't have to have all the answers - sometimes just noticing what's there is enough. Be curious, not critical, and let things unfold at their own pace.

(From Kate Bowler's Lenten devotional.)

Create a phone jail or parking lot for your phone.

Place your phone in the jail or parking lot during meals, time spent with others, or while watching tv so you can focus.
