The Art of Becoming

Friends, these are some unprecedented times we're in. And it just didn't feel right to talk about something else when a global pandemic (#coronavirus) is underway. On the eve of lock-downs, school closings and the socially distant times, we decided to get back to basics and check in with each other.

We talk about how we're taking care of ourselves this week by limiting excessive news intake and trying to maintain some semblance of routine. We share gratitude for the ability to work from home and for the magic of technology in helping us stay connected from near and far. We discuss letting go of expectations, which we know will be an ongoing adventure (particularly as we get ready to work and educate our children at the same time).

And finally, we share the mini challenge we're doing over on our instagram this week (instagram.com/artofbecoming) where we'll be sharing a quick exercise daily to drop back into our bodies, take a moment for ourselves and find a tiny bit of inner peace in these crazy times. We hope you'll join us over there so we can take care of ourselves and each other. <3

In this episode, we're talking about the signs and symbols that show up in our lives - often when we need them most. Jess shares how growing up in a spiritual family inspired the ways she looks for miracles and affirmations today, and Selena talks about leaning into the mystery after her father's death. We talk about spirit orbs and roses, how signs encourage us to trust our intuition and how reconnecting to the natural world can comfort us in times of change and transition. And finally, we talk about the work around recent signs we're both doing at the moment, and how that's informing our lives right now.

In today's episode, we talk SCREEN TIME (or is it screentime, one word?), the hotly debated and often misunderstood part of our everyday lives. We discuss watching television growing up, from Nick @ Nite and ER to watching baseball with our fathers. We dive into the important place social media has in our lives and in helping people find their community, and cover the shows we're watching right now. And we share the questions we ask ourselves in order to be intentional about screen time, making infinite scrolling more mindful mindlessness than anything else.
