Turning inward, we must make space for sorrow and acknowledge the spiritual warfare that surrounds us in our daily lives. We must seek clarity over confusion and intentionally put on the armor of love to protect our minds, our hearts and our relationships. 

During times of chaos, I especially look for clear, more simplistic ways of understanding. I have recently discovered Byron Katie’s, The Work, (2003)  which lays out a framework for seeing the world as it is and focuses our attention on our thoughts and actions, and not those of others. 

Katie outlines that humans can only be in one of three places with their thoughts: in your own business, in someone else’s business or in God’s business. 

Living your best self requires understanding the mind-body-spirit connection.  Your body is a physical presence and your mind controls how your body moves and functions. We teach a lot about fitness and nutritional habits to support your physical health. Your mind also controls how you think, which is a powerful force.
