Ep.11 Reflecting on 2024: A Guided Meditation and Spiritual Practice

Happy New Year! In this episode, I invite you to join me in a time of reflection and meditation on the past year of 2024. If you’ve already done a year-end reflection, feel free to share this episode with a friend. But if this is new for you or something you haven’t gotten to yet, you’re in for a meaningful experience.I’ll guide you through prompts inspired by my spiritual director, Grace Cooper, Founder of "Companions for Your Journey" (Spiritual Direction Ministry) to help you review the year one quarter at a time. Together, we’ll reflect on God’s movements in your life, moments of gratitude, loss, self-discovery, and His invitations for the year ahead.This is your time to slow down, connect with your heart, and listen for what God has to share with you. Grab a journal, a pen, and a quiet spot, and let’s walk through this time of reflection together.May this practice bless you and bring clarity as you step into 2025 with fresh hope and purpose.For more info on Grace Cooper and her spiritual direction team, please click the following link:https://www.companionsforyourjourney.com/"Companions for Your Journey" offers Individual Spiritual Direction sessions, Group Spiritual Direction, Children's Spiritual Direction, Retreats, Training Workshops, and Spiritual Exercises of St.Ignatius.What is Spiritual Direction?"The purpose of spiritual direction is to invite the person being directed into a greater awareness of the movement of God in their own life and can be described as a conversation of three. The director, the directee, and the Holy Spirit who is the true guide, enter into a conversation together with a desire for deeper intimacy between the directee and the Lord. We believe that God is always pursuing us, always wanting to connect with us, and as we give Him space, He speaks and invites us to draw closer. Spiritual direction focuses on your personal journey with God and what is happening in the current season of your life with Him. This is not therapy or counseling. The director will not be diagnosing and will not give advice. Our directors are not licensed therapists or counselors. If things come up in a session that are beyond the scope of a trained spiritual director, you will be encouraged to seek a professional for therapy or counseling."
