SPIRITUALLY SEEKING
11:43 PM Posted by MS.NOVA
After a rough couple years, I feel like I'm finally ready to start some kind of spiritual something. I'm not a religious person per say (haven't been to a church in years and have no connection to it), but I feel like I need to get in touch with my inner self. I'm not sure where to start. I tried meditation, but couldn't shut up the noise in my head. Yoga is ok, but I don't think thats enough. All the other areas of my life (work, family, money, love, health) are in good working order, I just want to give my spirit the same attention.
What is the best way to get in touch with my spirituality and how do I know what is right for me?

Spirituality is such a broad term that can mean so many different things. Some believe it is religiously driven, but others believe it describes the relationship you have with yourself.
I believe spirituality is having a connection with your conscience being and/or the deeper meanings that govern your life.
Ahhhh, the voice in the head that won't shut up. Yep, I know that voice. You're trying to meditate (focused thinking) and that silly voice keeps interrupting your attempts at solitude.
Sometimes, an actual physical journey to a place of solitude may help, like a trip to the lake/ocean, or a park. Spiritual reading can be a good segue into discovering your spiritual self also.
How do you know when it's right for you? When it feels right!!! Just like being in love, you don't know until you get there.
