Be courageous and be curious.

If you follow me on social media, then you know I have been making an effort to have FAITH this winter. Trying to trust the process, and to have faith that it will all work out. This month, I am setting my intention to also be CURIOUS. I want more discussions that energize me and I am sure I am not alone in my desire to cultivate more meaningful conversations.

I love a picture book that teaches as, and we can all learn from Curious George and his adventurous spirit. “Curiosity- genuinely wanting to know more about something- creates an openness to unfamiliar experiences, laying the groundwork to experience discovery, joy and delight.” Curiosity can be nourished by asking questions, and can be dulled with routines.

I have struggled this month to read a book and have found online articles and podcasts easier to digest. Experience Life magazine was on Dan & Tiffany’s coffee table and I have grabbed the mag at Barnes & Nobles. This article has some good tips on expanding your curious brain. Their podcast; The Living Experience, is helping me make little shifts in my lifestyle towards a happier healthier one.

Nuun of us want to get sick so I took Monique’s suggestion and drop this tablet into my morning H2O.

Monika told me about this show on our January girl’s trip and I am enjoying the suspense.

Where is your $?

Jonathan gave me the idea to buy a wallet case, and I have been saved so many times when I need a credit card and did not have my purse. I am NEVER without my phone!

Can’t sleep?

Thanks to Matt, I can now listen to podcasts when I wake in the middle of the night. This pillow speaker slips right into your pillowcase. I have made my way through a lot of the How I Built This pods, and Canva’s Melanie Perkins talks about being curious in her episode.

Great balls of protein! My boys thought dates were overweight raisins, but they have been convinced to try them in disguise. We have been gobbling these up as a late afternoon snack!
