Our final skill we want to introduce here is to be able reflect on our life through the previous skills we've practiced. We'll practice this using a "spiritual location exercise" with a view toward this outcome for this week: to be able to notice "where I am" today, reflect on it and bring it freely into conversation with God.
-
• Set aside time to try a spiritual location exercise.• Similar to how you've been practicing a prayer of examen over your day, take time to practice an examen over the weeks of this course. Allow God to guide your memory back through each of these weeks, from start to finish, paying attention to the gifts and graces you can receive.

Reflecting on your time journeying through this course:
• What gifts or graces can you notice? What kind of interior work might you notice?
• What was a challenge or a source of friction for you? How is it for you to notice this?
• What would you like to take forward or nurture from this experience? How might God be inviting you to respond? How would you like to respond?
