Readitations

Are you looking for more calm in your life? Do you want to connect with reading on a deeper level? Do you want your inner voice to sound more peaceful, confident, and kind every day? Each week in Readitations, I talk about something I've read and create a guided meditation based on the text to help you ground, care for, and listen to yourself. We've each got our own story and meditation and reading are here to help us write those stories the way we want to.

15. Find Faith Amidst Uncertainty: Jesus Shaves by David Sedaris

December 27, 2021 • Celeste Johnson • Season 1 • Episode 15

What's your relationship with the word "faith?" In this episode on the dryly humorous essay "Jesus Shaves" by David Sedaris, explore the sometimes-challenging concept of faith and its companion, uncertainty. Dig in to find simple, grounding sources of faith, no matter what you believe. "Why bother struggling... if each of us didn't believe that, against all reason, we might eventually improve?" Sedaris writes. That spark of hope is at the heart of faith. Try this meditation to sit with the paradox of faith amidst uncertainty and ground yourself with feelings of safety and support.
