Know yourself. Be yourself.
Build a reflective journaling habit with this guided email course, rooted in the daily Examen.
In this gentle, guided journey, you’ll learn a simple 4-step reflection practice based on the daily Examen, an ancient spiritual practice of reflection. No spiritual background required—this works for anyone who wants to know their authentic self.
Each week, you’ll add one new element:
- Week 1: Gratitude practice that builds contentment
- Week 2: Daily reflection on significant moments
- Week 3: Exploring your authentic self, and the adapted self that protects it
- Week 4: Using imagination to live more intentionally

Meet your guide
I’m John Chandler, a spiritual director and wisdom guide living on the desert edge of Phoenix. One of my greatest joys is to sit with others and offer thoughtful questions as they explore how to live well. All of my work is about helping people uncover and live from their authentic self.
Before this work, I served in leadership roles in churches and other non-profits for 25 years. Today I offer spiritual direction from a Christian perspective, and wisdom sessions for people who want to move forward in their life with wisdom and discernment, whatever their faith background. These courses are a way to begin that work on your own, at your own pace.
