Bonus: How to Get Out the Door (Rerun)

As you can tell, today is not Monday. Today is Thursday, but on the occasional Thursday, we share a bonus episode from the archives that we think will be helpful this time of year. Since it’s the end of August and regular rhythms have already or are about to pick up, we’ve got to figure out how to get out the door. Here’s an episode from years’ past about getting out the door with not only the stuff we need but with kindness, too.

What's Saving My Life

This is a phrase popularized by Barbara Brown Taylor, and it’s a simple question that helps you notice and contentedly appreciate where you are right now. What’s saving your life right now? My list is pretty light-hearted this season, but no matter what is on your list or mine, the practice is what matters. Notice what is happening in your life, the good things that make it lighter, easier, or better, and celebrate them.
