Tasha, thank you for the beautiful graphic on inviting God into our memories (joyful and traumatic.) I am writing a summer blogpost series on finding the beauty in life whatever we have on hand - the savory and the sour, the salty and the sweet - and I'd like to use this in a future post. Thank you!
Oh, and I am so grateful for you. What a gift this book is, and what a gift it is to be able to share it with others - thank you for writing it, friend.
I love this! I’ve never named it before, but invite people to it in my book, Breathing Through Grief. This has been such a part of my healing on the grief journey. 🩵 Grateful for your creative naming!
You are absolutely able to come up with and name your own spiritual discipline (all great ideas start with someone). I can see this being so beneficial especially in those trauma rememberances- especially ones that we carry, but don't often recall or process.
From the lens of a parent, I often tell myself "don't do the things your parents did or you'll mess up your kids!"- I could see this discipline helping one to unpack memories, give new insight and healing, and guide the steps moving forward.
Thank you for the affirmation and encouragement, Steve! Also, I hadn't thought about it in that way - as a practice that can help us as we parent, but I'm so glad you shared that.
This is very cool. I love that you have refined this practice and even named it. I recently stumbled upon my parents' stash of 1970s 8mm home movies and projector. After some work, I was able to get the projector functioning again and the flickering, silent memories sputtered to life on my bedroom wall. It was wild, like a time capsule. I would like to combine some of your suggestions with my next private viewing party. 💜
Thank you, Sherry! I'm so glad it will be something you can use and it seems timely, too. I'm impressed that you got the projector functioning again - what a beautiful treasure.
I just discovered your writing and feel like I just met an old friend. I'm also half Korean and navigate the liminal places of culture, faith, and wholeness in the privacy of my journal. What a delight to read your writing! I cannot wait to read your book. Thank you for sharing your journey with us.
Dawn, thank you so much. I'm so glad you shared and so happy to connect with a kindred (and Mixed Korean?!) soul who is also navigating so many similar threads. Grateful, grateful.

I'm so glad it can be helpful for you and this upcoming series, Maggie!
“We don’t go back to stay stuck there, and we can’t change what happened, but we can go back and see something we couldn’t then.” Beautiful.
Also thank you for generously sharing about The Way of Belonging. I’m so grateful for you.

Here for all of this, including the Hermione voice
Loved this practice and how you wrote about it, Tasha. Thank you for sharing it with us!
Thank you, Stephanie!
This is beautiful. I officially tried Lectio Divina for the first time this week and ended up in Psalmedy of John 14:1-3.
Oh, I love that.
I love this! I’ve never named it before, but invite people to it in my book, Breathing Through Grief. This has been such a part of my healing on the grief journey. 🩵 Grateful for your creative naming!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I absolutely co-sign on this Rememorari Divina. Run with it, Tash. So good, and the world needs it.
Thanks, Rachel. You are a kindred soul.
Wow, Tasha - I love this so much. Thank you for ruminating on this and naming it.
Thank you, Kristin!
