What if dissonances we feel around our spiritual practices are trying to tell us something? At one point or another, most of us probably find that some of our usual faith practices just aren&apos;t helping us connect anymore. In this episode, we talk about both the spiritual practices we&apos;ve tried in the past and what we&apos;re exploring now.

Ep. 2 Finding New Life in Old Traditions

Discover the gifts of deep listening and spiritual companioning. This podcast is dedicated to helping people become familiar with the wide variety of contemplative practices that have been developed over hundreds of years and are continuing to develop even to this day. We also hope to create a space for people to learn more about spiritual direction, also known as spiritual companioning. Our interest is in allowing "the contemplative" to become a part of our regular life experiences, and so we cover a lot of ground! How does Art fit? Music? Exercise? How does my personality play into my experiences? What if I don't feel comfortable with silence? What if I don't even know what I think about God? And what you'll find is that, since there are 3 of us co-leading the podcast, each of us often comes with a slightly different point of view. So there's no cookie-cutter, one-size-fits-all conversations! We hope you'll join us!
