Happy Holidays or Half-Way Hollowed Daze?
December! Even in 2022, it seems busier than some people remember! What to do?
To overstate the answer: Chill.
Which in this instance has nothing to do with the weather and everything to do with catching your breath, or maybe moments of Sabbath-Time, or even self care.
John Pavlovitz has come up with daily practices that are so good and so simple and so do-able that you and I are going to spend this week looking at them one at a time.
Here we go —
Engage and withdraw.
In addition to your activism, take time for “inactivism.” Withdraw into whatever allows you to breathe and recalibrate: silence, solitude, nature, prayer, yoga, meditation.
— You’ll never know until you try. (Yes, that’s from an old song by the trio called America.)
Apply as needed and I hope to see you back here tomorrow.
