Materials & Setup:

None

Instructions: 

As you take time for silence throughout the day, note the distractions you experience, both human-made and nature-made. Come to terms with these by asking yourself:

  • What might Spirit have to teach me or remind me of through the noisy annoyances?
  • How can I take the distractions into the silence with me and use them as way to center into communion with the Inner Light?
  • How can I turn the disturbances into blessings -– blessings of connection with nature, with other people, and with God?
