How to Make a Sanity Quilt

How to Make a Sanity Quilt

Do you ever feel like your life is a crazy quilt?

Martha says that creating your life is the ultimate creative project, and that’s what she’s talking about in this episode of The Gathering Room.

Each of us is given all the material to make a life—a human body, a set of circumstances, and a set of abilities—and the life we make from that material is ours to determine in this day and age.

Sometimes it feels like we’re just piecing things together helter-skelter without a pattern, crazy-quilt style, but Martha says there’s nothing crazy about it. “Crazy” is trying to follow the pattern the culture gives us, using only the materials it wants us to have.

When you stitch together the unique elements of your life to make something that brings you joy and a sense of purpose, that is actually very sane—what Martha calls a “sanity quilt.”

Listen to the full episode to learn how to see beauty in the fabrics of your life so you can make your own warm and wonderful “sanity quilt.” You’ll also be able to participate as Martha guides you through her Space, Stillness, and Silence meditation.
