MP3•Thuis aflevering

This week's episode is somewhat of a continuation of Episode 89 where I reflected on the role of Lent in helping us process pain and suffering, and as a time to work through trauma. That is, Lent is a period of remembering that is important for us if we are to work through our suffering.

In this week's episode I discuss some ways that communities can create a safe space during Lent to process pain and suffering. In this episode I discuss:

Making it safe to discuss the hard issues such as death, suicide, anxiety, depression, loss, etc.
The importance of not giving easy answers (if any at all) to people's pain and suffering.
Learning to sit in in one's pain, in silence, together.
The role of rituals and symbolism in the healing process.
The boundary between bearing other's burdens, but also giving them the space to work through their own "stuff."
