12 MAR 2024 · "When you go out of your way to experience new things, or when you let new things happen to you, your body creates brand new neural pathways that fuel your creative spark and enhance your memory.In one study, researchers tested the memory of participants by showing them images which were rated as novel, familiar, and very familiar. The best results came when people were shown a novel image, followed by a familiar one. So, while repetition helps with memory, mixing in new information is important as well."

5 MAR 2024 · "Giving alms has always been an important part of Lent. For many people, it means giving money to Catholic charities or some other good cause. But the concept of almsgiving goes much deeper. It is our response to the teachings of Jesus that encourage us to reach out to people in need—not just with our money—but with our time and our talents. Today we might call it ‘stewardship" Simply Catholic Welcome my friend! Today we are concluding our conversation on the Four Pillars of Lent with almsgiving.

6 FEB 2024 · I have a confession to make, I am a bit obsessed with the book we are reading for our bible study this month. If you have listened to episode 45 then you are already familiar with Derya Little. If you have not yet listened, what are you waiting for! Just kidding, in all seriousness, when you get a chance be sure to check out last week’s episode where I introduced Derya and her wonderful little book, At His Feet which is available on Amazon. My inspiration for last weeks episode derived from chapter 4, when Derya spoke about the woman at the well. Today’s inspiration comes from ch. 6, the story of the Canaanite woman who approached Jesus in regards to him healing her possessed daughter. Curious to know more? You know what to do! Hit that play button and enjoy a few nuggets of God's goodness spoken to me through this awesome book! Follow me here: https://www.instagram.com/findingherhappiness23
