In the Company of the Weary: Ten Gentle Spiritual Practices for Your Tired Soul

Are you weary, feeling distant from God, and wondering if a spiritual life is possible for you?

If you're in the thick of grief, burnout, or mental illness, spirituality may feel like a burden you can't bear. Participating in common faith practices comes with a weight that might be too heavy to carry right now. When church isn't working—you just don't have the energy to show up, read the devotionals, sing the songs, or make the small talk anymore—what can you do to connect with God?

Becky L. McCoy faced this issue personally. Limited by grief and anxiety, she thought a spiritual life was out of reach until she began exploring contemplative practices and unlocked a gentle and accessible way of faith she never expected. As you walk through Becky's journey, you’ll be introduced to a new take on ancient practices and encouraged to

• rediscover meditation,

• shift your perspective on stillness and silence,

• realize spirituality should be full of curiosity and mystery, and

• learn that God is not interested in how much you know but in how you respond to your human limitations.

This gentle invitation is for you. Learn to reweave your faith with healthy practices that honor your needs and nourish your weary soul.
