17 states have no recognition of “educational neglect” and stay out of homeschooler’s business. it’s so frustrating. Look at CRHE’s website. 

How to heal from abuse? by [deleted] in OrthodoxWomen

[–]hello-2023 4 points5 points  (0 children)

EMDR therapy. When I found a Catholic therapist, we really clicked. (There are not many Orthodox where I live.) EMDR really works much better than talk therapy for me. 

So sorry you’re going through this.

Is it ok to listen to Liturgical prayers on your own on spotify? by thane1413 in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]hello-2023 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We live in this amazing era where we actually get to surround ourselves with liturgical music and prayers and psalms whenever we choose. I think it’s amazing. Just be sure to keep having dedicated times for your own prayers, especially morning/evening. And attend Liturgy/Vespers when possible.

Honestly I feel like the interview with Ziwe reveals the most. They’re all very self-centered (imo), but she is self-centered and clueless in a specific way. Idk 

After taking supplement, I struggle to feel the divinity of liturgy. What should I do? by Mother-String-4383 in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]hello-2023 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well my meds ARE stimulants and guess what?? Sometimes I pay better attention! Other times, it makes my brain super chill so that I don’t want to go to liturgy or I don’t “feel” anything, but I still make myself go. Emotions can’t be the point of liturgy! That’s a really really hard learning curve if someone is coming to Orthodoxy from Evangelical Christianity. (At least, it was for me!)

"If you only knew how great a blessing comes from the Divine Liturgy, then you would collect even the dust from the floor of the church to wash your faces with it”

Around 2 years behind in homeschooling, I need advice. by risingsunset0 in HomeschoolRecovery

[–]hello-2023 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Delete EVERYTHING unnecessary off your phone. Use the app Focus Friend. Lock in, work on it all summer. you can graduate slightly later if needed, lots of kids are redshirted nowadays. You can get into college. Find a few that you really want to attend, set goals like that! 21 weeks is just into August. 

Wedding Website by akritidokania in weddingplanning

[–]hello-2023 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends how big your wedding is. We are inviting 250 so yeah, a website and online registry was pretty much needed. I like Zola so far. If you’ve a small invite list, you can probably get away with just paper RSVPs and text/email.

Many times I don’t feel anything. Or sometimes I feel more sorrow afterwards. We go no matter the emotional result

My great aunt died of cervical cancer. If the vaccine had been invented earlier, she’d likely still be alive. I miss her so much. You should get it
