"Suppose you read about a pill that you could take once a day to reduce anxiety and increase your contentment. Would you take it? Suppose further that the pill has a great variety of side effects, all of them good: increased self-esteem, empathy, and trust; it even improves memory. Suppose, finally, that the pill is all-natural and costs nothing. Now would you take it? The pill exists. It is meditation.”
Jonathan Haidt

The Pill Exists

The Daily Examen is a midday/evening meditation technique that incorporates awareness, gratitude, reflection, and vision. The Examen Remixed is an adaptation from Ignatius Loyola’s original practice found in his Spiritual Exercises. This practice teaches us how to find the Spirit in our relationships, challenges, frustrations, and feelings that we are experiencing in the present moment. In this “remix” you will be led through the principles of the traditional Examen, while also being given the opportunity to reflect on quotes for thinkers, philosophers, artists, etc.
