Creating space for your soul to breathe so you can discern your next right thing.

90: Start with this Simple Rhythm

I talk a lot about the importance of creating space for your soul to breathe. One question I often hear is how?

What does it look like to create space for your soul? Practically, on a Tuesday, in the middle of your regular life?

I’ve been writing the answer for the past ten years but my words don’t always provide prescriptive advice. I admit, that’s just not my style. 

While part of me is resistant to the question, another part is compelled to continue to answer it. In fact I see it as part of my calling, part of my responsibility to teach this practice of creating space — if I say it’s important (and it is) and if I practice it myself (and I do!) then I need to come up with the words to explain what that could look like for someone else, maybe even for you.

    This was so helpful and encouraging, Emily.Thank you for sharing your heart felt and discovered path of your own morning rhythm of communing with God.

    It has been life giving (already) to my heart today, as I have greatly needed a fresh wind of direction for my own time with Jesus. Thank you for being true to The Spirit’s leading and for lighting the way for us!
