Attentiveness, Your Senses, and Loving Kindness Blessings
Wednesday Pause
Happy Wednesday!
Here’s a midweek intermission inviting you to pause, reset your focus, practice presence, examine your life, and cultivate joy.
In continuing with this month’s soulwork theme of awareness, we invite you to print off this month’s offered illustration to accompany your times of reflection.
-With Joy
Pause for Thought
"With regard to the world around one, there should be a conscious willed period of attentiveness each day … It is important to notice positively the objects in one’s environment, the things in the familiar street, the flowers and trees in the garden and park, and above all the people one passes to and from one’s work.”
“The Lion Christian Meditation Collection,” compiled by Hannah Ward and Jennifer Wild.
Pause for Practice
Take a few moments to consider what your five senses are currently experiencing. What do you see? What do you feel? What do you hear? What do you taste? What can you touch? Savor these gifts.
Pause for Examination
Think of three people in your life you are really grateful for, and speak the following blessing over them: May you be safe. May you be happy. May you be healthy and whole.
