If your work involves caring for others, you know how easy it is to become overwhelmed by the needs around you. Each week, I share stories and practices on building the capacity, relationships, and habits to sustain care over the long haul.
Connection Through Disconnection: The Wednesday 1-2-3
|
Happy Wednesday Reader! A few weeks ago, I reached out to a group of amazing inner work practitioners, therapists, and writers to ask this question: How do you cultivate a sense of connection in the midst of seeming chaos and conflict? And in one of the first responses I received, R.G. Shore, author of The Ocean Inside Me: A Spiritual Memoir on Healing Racial Trauma, shared an approach to connection that challenged me and gave me pause. He said this: “Connection, for me, is much more about letting go of what isn’t connection, as opposed as trying to find it.” I invite you to watch the whole video (it’s less than five minutes) and take some time to reflect on what in your life isn’t feeling connective for you – and what it might mean to let it go. ❓ Questions
