This is a special episode for everyone, those who identify as Christian and those who don't.  I wanted to create a resource or everyone to help them get back to self regulation.  In this short episode, I walk you through a Body Scan, and then into a safe place.  The episode has an additional 14 minutes of soft music at the end for you to stay in your safe place as long as you would like.  

Enjoy!

In this episode, we set right into a safe place exercise, creating a space in our minds to meet with Jesus and feel attuned and seen by him.  The episode has about 10 extra minutes of music at the end that fades out so you can stay as long as you like.  

As we close season 1 at long last, I share my own practice of leaving my faith community and starting new.

(What a bad title!)  In this episode, I am sharing about what I'm learning in school, specifically about Uri Bronfrenbrenner and his Ecology of Human Development.  I spend just a little time explaining his theory, and then I ask the question, How do we experience God in each level?  The spiritual practice starts at minute 13 if you want to jump there. But I'm sure you will find the full explanation helpful.  

You can google "Bronfenbrenner Ecological Model" to see a number of different illustrations, but here is one I really like: https://twitter.com/clinpsych_ind/status/1460165178247503872

In this episode, I share my final project from the Medical Ethics class from this summer at Fuller Theological Seminary.  I have tons of great resources listed for you. You can visit the Works Cited page here.  

You can see the graphic I mention through out this episode here.  

In this episode, we talk about the stories we tell and our human inclination to have a villain and and victim or a hero in our stories.  How do we move from this framework to one where Jesus is the center of our story?
