SUMMARY:My Only Resolution for the New Year: Honoring My True Self by Linda Reppond
DESCRIPTION:Perhaps\, like me\, you have given up on making New Year’s resolutions after so many quickly fell away and became one more way to beat yourself up. \nMost people make resolutions about various aspects of self-improvement: diet and exercise; creating and maintaining order in home\, finances\, or work life; or changing habits that are self-destructive. \nThe problem is that when the new behaviors fail\, as they often do\, we end up using them to make ourselves miserable and to validate our inner critic. Learn and explore how we might turn this\, instead\, into ways to nurture and honor ourselves. Focusing on our strengths\, not our weaknesses\, we can begin to honor our true selves\, and allow our best self to shine. \nRev. Dr. Linda Reppond lives in Ashland\, Oregon\, as a mostly retired CSL minister. While no longer working in a full-time ministry role\, Dr. Linda remains a fierce advocate for young\, emerging spiritual leaders: as a mentor and coach\, as an honored elder at events\, and Chair of ReGeneration\, the scholarship fund for young people entering ministry. \nDr. Linda was the founding minister of the Launching Pad\, a dedicated young adult church in Centers for Spiritual Living. For over ten years\, the Launching Pad\, with locations in Berkeley\, CA\, St. George\, Utah\, and Ashland\, Oregon\, served as a magnet for conscious young adults who chose to live in community and be supported in deepening a personal spiritual practice and a community of peers who are living their truth and loving their lives. \nShe served as director of the National Runaway Switchboard\, President of the National Network for Youth\, and Executive Director for Seattle Youth and Community Services\, Special Olympics Washington\, and other charities. \nDr. Linda received a Masters in Consciousness Studies at the Holmes Institute in San Diego. She received her Doctor of Ministry at Pacific School of Religion in Berkeley. She currently serves as the Youth Minister of her home church\, CSL Rogue Valley in Medford.
