Start Where You Are: Personal Reflections for Teaching on the Edge of Mystery

Personal Reflections: Start Where You Are

These prompts invite you to reflect inwardly. Use them as journaling tools, warm-ups, or group conversation starters. Begin from wherever you are. There are no wrong answers, only your honest perspective.


Think globally, locally, internally. What’s changing for you?

Have you ever experienced something that didn’t quite fit with what you’ve learned from science? How did it make you feel? Did you try to explain it, or just sit with it?

How do you respond to words like non-human intelligence, unidentified anomalous phenomena, or consciousness? Which word feels the most curious or strange to you? Why?

What happens inside you when you allow something entirely new into your understanding of reality? Is it unsettling? Exciting? Confusing? Beautiful?

How do you react when certainty begins to slip away? Do you try to hold on tighter, or let go and see where it takes you?

What signs do you notice that something big might be shifting in the world?
