I am in a reflective season of my life.
It started when my father passed last July. It lit a spark under me.
At first I thought that spark was to do *things*: starting that business I had been thinking about, or finally running the half-marathon I keep casually mentioning as a possibility.
But I realized that it’s more about inner work:
Understanding myself more deeply and allowing myself to feel the full range of emotions I experience.
To lean into this reflective season of my life, I’ve added…
📝 Daily journals with questions that prompt new ways of thinking about my own life.
You can find some of my favorite journal prompts (so far) here.
❤️🩹 IFS Therapy to notice the programmed patterns controlling my life. And consider which are serving me.
🧘♂️ Meditation to get better at noticing my emotions and thoughts.
These are things I’ve been enjoying a lot lately…
- 🎵 Jon Batiste , rSun, Vulfpeck
- 📚 Consolations by David Whyte, Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang
- 🎥 Big Jay Oakerson (stand up), Rory Scovel (stand up), Severance (TV)
Concepts I’ve been exploring lately…
- The shadow self
- Carl Jung’s idea of individuation + modern interpretations
- IFS Therapy & the spiritual interpretation of parts work
