Seeing Blessings: Expanding our Perception Box
From Healing the Unresolved by Fr. Joshua Makoul, and Ancient Faith Ministries
April 18, 2026
About this episode
The episode discusses how trauma narrows our perception and offers insights on expanding our perception box for spiritual growth.
Today’s podcast focuses on how trauma and painful experiences shrink and narrow our perception of the world. There is discussion of the concept of our “perception box” which gives us something concrete to focus on in our spiritual lives. Learning to expand our perception box, to let all the data in, can help stop the process of past painful experiences being super- imposed on the present. Rather than constantly repeating the past, suddenly we are living a life free of it.
