Why is liturgy important?

Oftentimes, we think of it merely in terms of an obligation, and consider other pursuits—valuable as they may be—as our primary contribution to God and to others.

But this reveals a failure to appreciate what the liturgy is. Participation in the liturgy is the fundamental human act that fulfills the purpose for which we were created, and thus the greatest of all human activity.

Why is this so?

Join Dr. Jared Staudt for a discussion of Pope Benedict XVI’s The Spirit of the Liturgy, and come to a fuller understanding of worship that will transform your participation in the liturgy.

🫀🪷🧠 Did you know that the heart’s electromagnetic field is the most powerful field generated by your body? It is projected throughout the body, and radiates several feet outside of you. Core heart feelings (love, appreciation, compassion) down-regulate the activity of the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight) and increase the activity of the parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest). 

〰️💗〰️Heart rhythms are mirrored in our emotional states. “Negative” emotions such as fear, anger, and hostility create disordered and irregular heart rate variability (the healthy variation in the time interval between heartbeats). “Positive” emotions create improved order in the heart’s rhythms.

As the heart beat’s it’s drum, conducts signals through information superhighways like the vagus nerve, to the rest of the body. The heart and brain share a dynamic two-way dialogue. The communication along these conduits significantly affects brain’s activity. 〰️Synchronizing the brain and heart can yield powerful biological and spiritual effects 〰️

Having awareness of a heart centred engagement is a powerful fulcrum to work from in CST.

We’ve been waiting for this one @anatomy.app ! 😁 The sphenoid is an exceptionally beautiful bone, beautiful in its complexity, beautiful in its delicacy. It has often been compared to a butterfly, or moth – with its body centrally, its two greater wings, its two lesser wings, and its pterygoid processes hanging down like the legs of a moth. The sphenoid is also a central, pivotal component of the cranio-sacral system, located centrally within the base of the cranium, articulating with every other bone of the cranium and also with several facial bones. Together with the occiput, it forms the spheno-basilar synchondrosis, the pivotal fulcrum around which the whole bony cranio-sacral system revolves.
