Have you ever arrived somewhere and realized, "I don't remember how I got here"?
That happens when you drive mind-less-ly. Your body was in the car, but your mind was somewhere else entirely. And, in fact, we live most of our lives this way... on some form of autopilot. We push to get to a next better moment and fail to notice the present one.
But imagine if
...you rushed less?
...you felt less anxious in your day-to-day life?
...you could read the Bible and pray without your mind constantly wandering?
...you were more present for your kids, your spouse, your friends, yourself, God?
That's what holy noticing is all about. It's a spiritual discipline that's been practiced in some form or another by Christians since the first century, and it can fit right into your daily quiet times. Learn what the Bible, church history, and neuroscience have to say about a mindful lifestyle, and discover practical, manageable tools for practicing it in your own life.
