The Contemplative Life

Ep 28 Contemplative Storytelling


Listen Later

Today we talk about our stories, why they matter and how we’re changed as we interact with both our own stories and the stories of others.

As it turns out, research and experience show that sharing our stories helps us overcome pain, adversity, and struggle. But sadly, many of us suffer from the inability to even know what our story is. In this episode, we’ll explore a few ways to get back in touch with all of that as well as take some time to talk about what it takes to accept even the parts of our stories we don’t like as much.
