These short guided meditations are ones I wish existed. They are topical, easy to follow, and made to feel therapeutic. They are short and combined with very calming music.

This is a short meditation for the holiday season. Hopefully it can be a quiet moment away for you during this season, however it lands for you.

This week's Mental Health Check-In is about preparing for the holidays from a mental health and emotional health perspective. We often prepare in so many ways for this season, but rarely for our hearts, minds, souls, and frankly our mental health. We will talk about different topics ranging from boundaries to grief. Unfortunately I can't cover every topic is a short episode, but I hope this episode will be validating and start your own conversation with yourself.

Conversation with Sarah E. Westfall

The Way of Belonging

Episode # 135

I am so excited to have author Sarah E. Westfall on the Still Becoming Podcast. In this interview Sarah invites her into her unique lens on the topic of belonging. We discuss the common longing to belong, the desire for "withness," and my favorite part of her book and this conversation: "Belonging is not something to attain, but someone to become."

This is a tender and insightful conversation. We touch faith, grief, God seeing us, and belonging. I can't wait for you to hear this interview!
