Hello, listeners! 💛

We're back, and this week we're talking about our feelings post-election and as we prepare to head into the holiday season.

Key Topics Discussed:

🌟 Maintaining Inner Peace Amidst Division: Exploring the ACIM idea of "I could see peace instead of this" and the role of gratitude, laughter, and supportive connections.

🌟 Finding Love and Unity in Uncertain Times: Drawing from the teachings of Martin Luther King Jr. and A Course in Miracles to choose compassion over judgment.

In this episode, we have an open and heart-centered conversation about finding peace during times of political and social division. We reflect on our emotional responses to the election and the natural feelings of confusion, frustration, and even contempt that can arise. Together, we share our journeys toward acceptance and discuss how we’re each working to choose compassion and unity over judgment.

We also explore how the teachings of Martin Luther King Jr. and A Course in Miracles guide us to “see peace instead of this” and to let love lead, even when we don’t see eye to eye. From setting boundaries around media consumption to embracing empathy in challenging conversations, we share our own strategies for keeping our inner peace intact.

As we look ahead to the holiday season, we’re setting powerful intentions to be more compassionate, recognizing that growth often requires the courage to choose light over contempt. We invite you to join us in this season of reflection and to approach the holidays with an open heart and a renewed commitment to peace.
