9: Daily Examen for Busy Humans: Simple Steps to Notice God
Life is full, and sometimes finding space for God feels hard. In today’s episode I’m sitting down with you — coffee in hand — to explore the Examen, a daily reflective spiritual practice developed by St. Ignatius of Loyola. We’ll cover why it matters, how it fits into busy lives, and how you can try it even if you’ve only got a few minutes. You’ll hear: what the Examen is, how it connects your body, mind and spirit, and practical steps to implement it in your day. If you’re longing for deeper connection with God and simpler rhythms of faith, this episode is for you.
