11 | Look on the Bright Side (Coming To Our Senses)
The Haven (Private Podcast): (Protected Content)
This issue of Coming To Our Senses brings together some of what we’ve been reflecting on, including:
- Every day encounters with optimism (and the impact of toxic positivity)
- When brightness comforts and when it distracts
- Stories about retreat, belonging, and loneliness
- How adversity can become a door to depth and interdependence
- When light turns into a polluting, noisy distraction, misused in the name of safety
Through poetry, images, fiction, and reflections, we play with and explore the nuances of looking on the bright side.
May these pages provide refuge, encouragement, and inspiration in due course. You are invited to travel with us as we explore the brightness, shadows, and the rich textures of the misty gloaming.
