In this ever-changing society, it seems as things shift, more and more people are feeling either disconnected from their soul essence, or they’re finding themselves starting over at times in their lives they wouldn’t expect. Trust me, if that resonates for you AT ALL, I’ve been there and have been living that transition for awhile now. However, with all those questions about “life purpose” or maybe having feelings of “I’m not where I’m supposed to be,” a lot of pressure may accompany those feelings. What can you do to alleviate that a bit so you can enjoy the process, no matter how confusing or uncertain it may be?

How we identify ourselves (based on years and years of conditioning and life experience), in essence is just a construct that helps us navigate the world and helps us tell others who we are, what we do, etc. But what happens when we start attaching ourselves to versions of ourselves that no longer work for us? What happens if you realize that everything you have learned to this point has made you into someone that lives “in a box” of what you identify yourself as? Can you detach and create a new identity (or a flexible one)?

In part 1 of Spiritual Awakening: Unraveling the Conditioning, I spoke about my own personal experiences with what it has felt like to navigate the jungle that is the awakening and enlightenment process. In the 2nd and final part of this mini series, I touch on a couple more experiences, and offer a few tips of practices or routines you can try to integrate to your own life in order to help you navigate what could be a confusing time for you!

As the world and all the related dynamics continue to shift on all levels, more and more people are waking up to “something bigger”; a deeper inner and collective connection. The last few years of my life have been the most transformational years in every conceivable way, and for awhile it was very difficult to even attempt to explain how lost I felt or what I was personally going through. From the breaking down and understanding of the ego self, to the 180 degree shift of mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual self (and how all that is connected), in part 1 of this mini series, I dive into the dynamics of what a spiritual awakening felt like for me, with the hopes that it could potentially offer you some solace or understanding for yourself if you’re navigating a deep change like this.
