Everyday Spiritual Habits by Hanna Seymour was written for women like me: moms of small children, or other busy folks who want to find time to grow their spiritual practices. Inviting Jesus into the tiny moments of our lives, to cultivate the spirit, learn scripture, and feel closer to God, even in the mundane of every day.
I found Hanna and her writing style to be very relatable, authentic, and inviting. She has been a Christian for what sounds like her entire life, but I'm a little baby Christian trying to find a way in to a spiritual practice for the first time as a grown up. This book is exactly what I needed.
It builds upon the framework of James Clear's Atomic Habits and the scripture itself, teaching how to choose good habits, how to break them down, where to fit them in, and how to make them actually stick. I do a lot of self-improvement, and I got several new insights from this book on general habit forming, too. These techniques can work on any goal you have.
I love that she gives real world practical advice on how to fit in the most foundational, integral pieces of a Christian spiritual practice, specifically studying scripture, and prayer. She also emphasizes the importance of friendship and community and really gives an excellent pep talk on that subject that has really inspired me.
One of the biggest takeaways I got from this book wasn't even a major point of emphasis in the book. It can apply to any fill in the blank:
"Was that time spent with God, or just time spent?"
Oof, the impact of that statement.
It's a lesson on presence I will carry with me in everything I do.
Excellent book you have here, Hanna. I believe this has the potential to impact a lot of people, women, specifically, to live more intentional lives, and nurture their relationship to God. Thank you for sharing it with me.
Note:: I received an early copy of this book from the publisher through netgalley in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

Loooovvveeeddd this book!! I speed read it and will be slowly digesting and going back throughout the year. This is one of those books I’ll keep on my bookshelf and refer back to. So helpful for the millennial mom who wants to grow closer to Jesus but feels guilt and shame for not knowing how. Hanna helps you reimagine what your walk with God can look like in the midst of your busy life- because she’s bee there too!
It is truly one of the best books I have read and that is saying a lot because I’ve read many books. It shows how you can incorporate Jesus in your everyday life no matter how busy it is. It’s so thought provoking that I had to grab a journal to write down things.
