“What does it mean to become spiritual, or godly? It means to have a higher view of life, to look at life from a higher point of view. It is the high point of view in life which ennobles the soul; it is by a broad outlook on life that spiritual aristocracy is realized.” - Hazrat Inayat Khan Do this meditation to ascend and become your highest self.  Sponsored by: Sambucol - Code Motherhood15 to save Lunya - Code UNSTRESSED20 to save Kindred Bravely - Code UNSTRESSED20 to save Brooklyn Candle - Code MOTHERHOOD20 to save Shop Motherhood Unstressed CBD Code PODCAST to save Connect with me on Instagram @motherhoodunstressed If this meditation was of benefit, please consider leaving an Apple podcast review, thank you!

All the air had been sucked from the room.” Kelly Speck had planned for her newborn son, Bennett, to be placed on her bare chest for his first attempt at breastfeeding. Instead, he was whisked away to the NICU. It was, as Speck writes, “the kickoff of a nightmare journey.” The doctors said the end was near for Bennett. Was there any hope? Hope in the Heartache, Kelly Speck’s true-to-life and immaculately detailed memoir, tells of Bennett’s fight to survive and his family’s journey through grief and exhaustion in hospitals, churches, and insurance offices. The Specks never lost faith, and in their devotion to God and family, they learned what matters most: hope.
