Rise to Thrive Episode 16 | Gotta Have Faith

What is it that keeps us moving through life and getting out of bed each morning? What foundational beliefs motivate us to carry on despite all obstacles? Is it sheer survival instinct that keeps us going, or is it something more? 

No matter what your spiritual or religious perspective, we all have a relationship to something bigger than ourselves - and it is our trust and belief in this bigger picture that carries us through the most challenging times. 

It may be connection to nature, affinity for humanity, trust in a higher power, or the solace of nature that buoys your spirits - no matter what it is - even if it's as simple as your own breath - we all have faith in something.

In this episode, we talk about how there can truly be no wrong faith. We explore the beauty and necessity of life's seasons and cycles, how the experience of contrast provides perspective and appreciation, and how to remember the light - even when it's dark.

We share our faith affirming experiences, and what kind of magic makes us get full body chills. Angel numbers, synchronicity, deja vu, or spirit animal - it's all gravy and groovy, baby. 

Have a listen and get connected to the foundation of being - the faith that supports and sustains us all - the simple faith in the power of our own breath, practice and presence.
