Grow Inward7. Connection To FaithIf I were to ask you to describe how and where faith plays a role in your life today, how would you answer that question? The word faith is often most generally associated with god or religion, but I would argue that it plays a much broader role in your life than that, and it absolutely should when it comes to inner work and inner growth.

Grow Inward5. Connection To ThoughtsI have to apologize for backtracking on what I said last week. I had intended to make last weeks episode the last in a short series of conversations on connection, but I quickly realized that there is much more to explore and so I decided to continue because I believe there is often a great deal of value found in even the smallest shifts in your perspective. Sometimes a tiny shift is all you need to make some really big breakthroughs.

Grow Inward18. Rejection Is HealthyLet’s talk about something that nobody likes, at least not when it is directed at us, and that is rejection! Oh it won’t be that bad, I promise. Actually, this is kind of a yin and yang type of conversation, because we are going to talk about both sides of this. One being the receiver of rejection, and the other being the giver. I think in the context of our times as of this recording, there are indeed some areas for improvement?

Grow Inward10. Seek To UnderstandGrowing inward involves so many different aspects of inquiry and growth, all meant to help us in different and profound ways, each holding the potential to improve our lives by considering the possibilities of thinking and acting differently. Not only do we need to seek to understand ourselves, but we should also make a more significant effort to seek to understand others. The apparent separation and division we all feel is completely self imposed. I do not believe that this is not who we are, or who we want to be as human beings.
