We are a little bummed that nobody mentioned Safety Dance in this conversation! That being said, this is a great conversation about dancing and ritual, the enneagram and our relationship with our bodies. This is Rachel's first time on the show, and Courtney is an Enneagram Journey veteran, and it probably isn't their last time sharing with our listeners. We have a few clips of songs sprinkled throughout the show, and hope you enjoy all of them (or at least a couple!).

Join us in escorting The Micah Center on to the next plain. Suzanne, Joe, and Hunter sit down for one final conversation at The Micah Center, the home of LTM for the past 20 years. As you'll hear in the intro, this episode is heavy on the "Journey" aspect of the podcast and light on any "enneagram" talk. Suzanne and Joe always are quick to say that the enneagram is just a tool. A GREAT tool, but just one. The Micah Center was so much more than a tool. It became a safe space for thousands of people to go to. Stay hard Micah Center!

You are opening yourself up to both yourself and God. There is not a grade in examen, nor is there a grade in any other spiritual practice. Various questions can be helpful in the examen practice. Below is one way of practicing examen. The hopes are awareness and attending The practice requires permission and welcome • The practice begins with permission. In examen, you give God permission to show you parts of yourself that are hidden or harder to see. You also welcome and allow parts of yourself to be seen by God and yourself. • This is done by reflecting on and responding to a series of questions. As you do this awareness of those parts of you starts to emerge. • Then, you permit God again to attend to what came up. Your work here is to welcome what you can and allow God to attend to you. • Repeat daily for 7-10 days, giving yourself time to notice and explore what you see. Examen Questions: What do I find myself grateful for today? What am I grieving today? Where do I sense God’s nearness to my grief? Where do I sense God’s distance from my grief? How has God been generous with me lately? How is God calling me to be generous today? Prayer: After responding to these questions, allow God to attend to you through your responses and what is coming up in you. Tell God thank you after a few minutes or however long you need. visit laurabmurray.com to learn more!
