Last year at our virtual Spiritual First Aid Summit, participants were really captivated by one particular workshop. It was a free-writing exercise with Bethany D. Hiser, who refers to herself as a "recovering social justice workaholic." Hiser authored the book, "From Burned Out to Beloved: Soul Care for Wounded Healers."

We decided to bring Bethany's workshop to you, our podcast listeners, for you to use anytime. The wonderful music accompaniment is provided by Aaron Andries, of "Graveyards to Gardens." (For more on Hiser's workshops, visit her website here.)

You'll see in our recent episodes that we also have a Ten Minute Embodied Prayer by Liuan Huska. This is another great tool to use for a moment of peace, to reconnect with your body. For today's episode though, you might want to use a pen and journal.

The Lord bless you and keep you this week. —Laura, Jamie & Kent

(Note to the listener: In this podcast, sometimes we'll have evangelicals, sometimes we won't. We thinking learning how to do good better involves listening to lots of perspectives, with different insights and understanding with us. Sometimes it will make us uncomfortable, sometimes we'll agree, sometimes we won't. We think that's good. We want to listen for correction. Especially in our blind spots.)
