Spiritual Preparation

Find a place where you can be quiet with your thoughts. Close your eyes and breathe deeply for several minutes, perhaps repeating a word or phrase to separate yourself from the activities of the day. When you feel settled and relaxed, consider:

  • When have you stepped past your comfort zone to be an agent of change? What has allowed you to do so? Has creative thought beforehand helped prepare you to act? How has inspiration or support from other people helped you?
  • What motivates you to try to make a difference in the world?
  • In what ways do you serve as a role model for children in the choices you make to reduce your use of fossil fuels and to use renewable sources of energy?
