Finding Somewhere Inside to Lay Down Our Arms

​Life happens. Some moments are so calm and inviting that every part of us opens and comes out to experience them. A day at the beach, time with trusted friends, sitting alone in nature.

​And sometimes life asks us to protect ourselves. We hold up a shield or withdraw more deeply within, so we're not exposed right on the surface where we can get hurt.

​But the armor can extend beyond the threat. We come home from “war” and don't realize we still have it on.

​The world may still be difficult. Can we find somewhere inside to lay down our arms, without waiting for everything around us to settle?

​In this free, guided hour with Silas Dubelaar, we'll explore an intentional transition: slowing down, noticing what we're holding, and recognizing the environment we're in now.

​Not throwing away our protection. Coming home to ourselves, disarmed where it's safe to do so.

​If this feels familiar, join us and add to the conversation.
