Hi,
Welcome to my site. I hope you learn something you can take with you today.
Nourished Journeys came from my desire to know my mind. On this journey I have discovered many things I would like to share with you and the world. That is why I started Nourished Journeys, to share.
It is a personal journey that began some time back. I High School I read The Unfettered Mind and The Tao of Physics, along with Sartre Essays in Existentialism and William Barett's The Existential Mind and Sore Kierkegaard. It was heavy reading but I enjoyed every minute of it.
At that point I also started meditating in our family backyard and found joy in discovering myself and my mind. Off and on over the years I kept up this mediation practice, which I was sometimes more vigorous about this than at other times.
Beyond the authors named above have found Brad Warner's Zen Wrapped in Karma Dipped in Chocolate and Noah Levine Against the Stream our both great authors.
The articles I publish here are for practices I follow to some extend or other. I'm not perfect and you should not feel you need to be either.
I have found that using gamification are streaks and so forth are not helpful. I try to do a little more than I did the day, the week or the year before. The goal should be how much you get accomplished compared to before. At least that is what I think.
It is all your journey and you can feed it, nourish it, and comfort it however seems right to you.
Peace be with you
