July 05, 2023 Episode 94: ReEngage
The gang gets together after a long break for Samuel and what it feels like to be back. We discuss reengaging, what that feels like, and some ways to succeed.
The poem Sarah shared:
Wild Geese You do not have to be good. You do not have to walk on your knees For a hundred miles through the desert, repenting. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves. Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine. Meanwhile the world goes on. Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain are moving across the landscapes, over the prairies and the deep trees, the mountains and the rivers. Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air, are heading home again. Whoever you are, no matter how lonely, the world offers itself to your imagination, calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting — over and over announcing your place in the family of things. – Mary Oliver

June 27, 2023 Deep Breath 23: Container
Join Julie as she talks about a new term this week! Container is a practice to strategically let something wait for now. It is knowing our limitations so that we don't do too much too fast and re-traumatize ourselves. There are lots of practical things that can serve as a container, but also some more creative ways for hard things to be held -- in time, spaces, and in trusted safe people who walk with us. Give your nervous system some support as you use container to give yourself some extra room to breathe.
