It’s time to be of service! But as you begin this self-care practice today, ask yourself how you can level up your activism. How can you take it one step further than you normally do? Can you go out of your way to have deeper conversations? Can you spend a little bit more time researching? And can you keep your heart open every step of the way?
Spiritual bypassing is the tendency to avoid facing any hardships within the world or ourselves, and to use our spirituality as the excuse for it. Today’s deepening practice will really bring you to a new level. You will have to ask yourself a really hard question - are your spiritual practices compelling you to action or helping you remain passive?
Today’s meditation practice will take you deeper than your physical self. It will bring you into your emotional container, your heart space, and your innermost sense of compassion and love. With each breath, you will feel yourself getting closer to a deep knowing within you - that you are connected to all other living beings. We are all one.
Moments of gratitude in our lives make us recognize the power that we have to do good in the world. In today’s episode, you are going to reflect on a moment in your life - and how it can allow you to tap into service. How can you come closer to humanity? Where is your compassion needed most right now? Rachel shares a beautiful example from her own life, then it’s your turn.
It’s Thanksgiving week, so our intention will bring us deeper than just connecting with a superficial level of gratitude - we are going to go so deep that it compels us to act. Real gratitude makes us look up and around. It connects us to compassion and humanity. And we can use it as fuel to be of service. Rachel will share how to do it. Tune in to begin.
We can contemplate joy all we want - but today’s practice will get you out there to actually experience it. Reach for something that brings you a true, authentic, childlike sense of joy. There is nothing too big, too small, or too silly. Rachel will share some examples, then it’s time to rebel against your inner adult and just do the thing that’s fun.
When we were young, it was so easy to connect to our joy. But as we grew older, that innate ability slipped further and further away from us. Why is that? In today’s contemplation, you will consider if there is anything in the way that holds you back from joy. Do you feel unworthy of it? Are there moments you don’t let yourself fully express it?
Joy is not a fleeting emotion. We all carry it within us! If you look deep enough, you will find an inner anchor that can bring you back to joy whenever you need. Our work lies in awakening this within us. This meditation practice will do exactly that. No matter what kind of day you’re having, let Rachel guide you through a practice that will source your inner light.
In today’s journaling practice, Rachel will offer you two prompts that will help you discover what brings you a true sense of joy. But this practice goes even deeper than that - you will also consider why joy is triggered or awakened inside of you. What brings out the best of you? Take a moment to figure it out. Tune in.
Although we may not realize it, joy is a difficult emotion for many of us to connect with. We often grow up with our nervous system on edge, working hard to keep our heads above the water. When true joy comes around, we almost can’t believe it. What is your relationship to joy? How do you relate to happiness? And most importantly, do you think you’re worthy of it?
