Mary Mindedness

Episode Overview:

In this first part of a two-part series, we explore the biblical characters of Mary and Martha, often seen as archetypes of contemplative and active lifestyles. We delve into the importance of "Mary Mindfulness," or the practice of stillness and reflection, and how it can enrich our lives.

Key Points:

The Eternal Tug-of-War: We discuss the internal conflict between our active and contemplative sides, symbolized by the dynamic between Mary and Martha.

The Gift of Stillness: We explore the benefits of slowing down and tuning into our inner wisdom.

Mary Mindfulness: We introduce the "Mary Mindfulness" concept and how it can help us cultivate peace, clarity, and deeper connections.

In the sea of action and agitation, I encourage you to tuck in with the content and conversation. You can always add your thoughts. You might want to explore your own vantage point through a short meditation or journaling. But remember that both awareness and action are always helpful if navigated with a peaceful purpose.

I have been more of a Mary in my life, so I look forward to moving into my Martha and implementing her script.
