Spie while being careful.
These three words seem simple enough. And yet, almost anyone who has tried to focus on understanding what is going on within themselves knows that the process can become quite quick and tricky. Introspection can be as maddening as it is enlightening.
On this episode of To be human, host Steve Cuss welcomes his dear friend and Capable Life collaborator Jimmy Carnes to talk about the importance of paying attention. Their conversation covers dehumanization, inner criticism, and anxiety. Carnes explains what triangulation is and how Christians can notice and respond to it. He shares some of his own sources of anxiety, how he works to address them, and how building Lego has become a vital habit for him.
Tune in for an episode of tips on becoming more connected to God, yourself, and others. Next week, Carnes and Cuss describe how the Enneagram, reactivity, and anxiety fit together and how the Enneagram can help us connect to God.
