Introduction

Welcome to 40 Days Toward Deeper Listening: Hearing the Heart of Humanity. This is the first audio course offered by A Peace of My Mind, and we’re excited to have you join us.

We hope these 10 minutes of your day are a place of rest, renewal, and inspiration.

Each day for the next 40 days, you will receive a short audio clip with an introduction, a personal story, and two prompts for your reflection, discussion, or journaling.

Please listen to the embedded audio file or read through the audio transcript, then move on to the prompts. How you approach this reflection time, and how deeply you dive, is entirely up to you. But know that the more time you spend with these stories — and your own — the more you are likely to discover. 

Spend a little time each day, and by the end of these 40 days, we suspect you will start to see the American landscape in some new and unexpected ways. And you’ll strengthen your skills for deeper listening as well.

Your prompts for the day:

  • If I didn't know anything about you, what would you want me to know?

  • What brings you here?
