Notifications

I dislike notifications on devices.  They can be helpful, yes, but also tedious, especially when they interrupt my train of thought or persist when I attempt to accomplish a task.  Every device we use nowadays comes with notifications for some reason or other.  Delivery systems like email and text message media can get clogged quickly.

That has me thinking of the notifications my body attempts to send...and my response (or relative lack of appropriate response).  I tend to ignore my body's desperate attempts to garner my attention and action, often at the worst times.  

What is the remedy to this neglectful attitude?  It's certainly not good stewardship to ignore my body's signals, and yet I continue to find myself effectively muting the very thing God put in place to keep my function at optimum.  To amend this, I know I must be intentionally attentive, rather than casually inattentive.

Jotting with Johnna:

How do you attend and tune-in the nuanced notifications of your body?

How might you cultivate awareness and intentionality with these signals and your response?

How might you track your progress?

Remember:  you are so very worthy of the work it will take to listen to your one, God-given body; and the investment will yield dividends in your spirit, mind, and soul as well.

Stay tuned.  Stay focused.  Stay well.
