S6, Ep. 03 Seasons of Formation: New Practices for a Different Season

What do you do when a seasonal practice ends and routines shift? As we move from the season of Lent into Eastertide, we explore how our spiritual practices might change. Whether we return to old patterns or try something new, the change of season invites a new rhythm. We share the importance of naming simple “non-negotiable” daily practices and building spiritual habits into existing rhythms and transitions. Whether it’s a change in the calendar or a transition to a new season, let’s embrace the invitation to explore new spiritual practices together.CLICK HERE for your free resource on life stage questions.CLICK HERE to read Lindsay’s Substack post on naming your non-negotiable spiritual practices.00:00 Welcome and Setup01:33 From Lent to Eastertide02:57 Letting Go After Lent05:45 Ego and Private Writing08:00 Seasons Change Practices10:53 Nonnegotiable Rhythms12:41 Morning Rituals in Motion19:12 Transitions as Prayer23:53 God in Daily Distractions26:49 Resources and ClosingLIFE MAPPING TOOLSGain clarity at life’s transitions and know yourself and God better through oure visual life maps.
