On Being Still

For the final episode of the year, Julia reflects on the idea of slowing down. What comes up when you take time to be still? When you’re so focused on where you’re going, it’s easy to lose sight of where you are or where you’ve been. During the darkest time of year, let the light guide you back home. How will you make room in the heart of your home for what you want to cultivate in 2022?

Journaling to Find Your Own Way

What happens when you give yourself some space to go inward? In this episode, Julia speaks on a few of her favorite journaling methods and practices. She also offers some journaling prompts that encourage you to dig a little deeper…

As we step into warmer socks and settle in for colder days, perhaps we have a little more time to peruse through the catalog of memories from the past many years, or to ponder the uncertain future ahead. Journaling can be one practice of many that helps ground you. Journaling can also equip you with the tools you need to better understand your own path along the spirals of life.

Reflection prompts:

What brings you joy? What do you feel challenged by? What are your favorite parts about yourself? What parts of yourself do you feel annoyed by? Why? What keeps you from journaling or taking time to reflect? What is your favorite way to reflect and process? How can you carve out a little more space, to make more sense of your story?

Reading Between the Lines of Your Own Story

How do you make sense of your story? Reading between the lines of our own stories can help us better understand the lives we lead, our relationships, and ourselves. Whether you express yourself through writing or another avenue, or you’re an occasional or avid reader, stories make up who we are. Stories are how we connect with one another. But sometimes the message of the story can be lost, or perhaps it was always up to the reader to draw their own interpretations…

Settling Into Something New

How do you integrate new lessons or impactful experiences in your day to day? Rather than shaming yourself for falling back into “old ways,” or when it’s taking longer to learn a lesson or change a habit, you can instead try to honor where you are now. It’s all part of the process to get where you’re going. But we can forget that sometimes…Hear about this and more of Julia’s latest ponderings.
