Listen "Ep 12 Beyond Body Shame"
Episode Synopsis
Today we’re talking about how the Contemplative can helps us respond to the signals coming from our bodies without all the shame. Most of us know the feeling all too well – that comment that so embarrassed us, expectations that we hold of ourselves, pressures we feel in society... The Contemplative helps us engage motivation that comes from a far more positive space, one where both God and our bodies (gently) show us the way. Join us as we talk about some of the many ways we’ve experienced this struggle in our own lives and how Contemplative questions are teaching us and helping us begin to move beyond shame.Additional Resources:Book: An Altar in the World by Barbara Brown TaylorBook: Sacred Rhythms by Ruth Haley BartonBook: The Problem of Pain by C.S.
