The Power of Challenges

Check out what some of the 77 people who participated in our previous 5 + 7-day challenges said:

• It enabled me to pay attention to what I truly want to pay attention to: co-creating peace!
• Seeing people do ‘high five’ and/or comment on my ‘failed experiences’ with compassion gave me the courage to get back up!
• This app enabled me to “take God” with me everywhere (kitchen, errands, etc)
• It was odd but powerful to feel seen and heard by people I do not even know.
• It was so doable since all I need to do was to find 3-5m, here and there, throughout the day.
• I knew ‘peace’ as an academic concept well, and thus it stays in my head space. Now I know how to embody peace through this challenge.
• Becoming aware of the times I held my breath helped me to breathe and let me access more ease and peace.

​

In this video below we shared what we learned from the 1st Peace Challenge and talk about the upcoming challenge 5 Day "Breath To Attach" Challenge.

This video is where we describe what it is like to go through

How can I know I'm doing God's will?

A few years ago, while I was in a challenging situation, my spiritual director (Jan Johnson - check her stuff out here), suggested the Bible has some things to say about doing God's will.

​

Rejoice always, (glad to be together)

pray without ceasing (always talk to Jesus)

in everything give thanks;

for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus.

(1 Thes 5:16-18)

​

​

​

You are loved!
You are a person of peace because you are attached to Christ.

​
With great love and wisdom,
