Spiritual Self-Care

Spiritual Energy

Spiritual Energy is like the invisible force that allows you to change something–the way gravity does. But unlike gravity, this force can be intentionally tapped and put to good use through ancient spiritual practices.

Ultimately this is the work of healing and aligning yourself with your Soul’s purpose. It requires patience and practice.

Meditation

Meditation is a spiritual practice that can help you cultivate and strengthen your energy. It can also help you feel connected to others and at one with the universe.

There are many different types of meditation, but it can involve breathing deeply, using a mantra or affirmation, and visualizing a positive energy source. The important thing is to find a technique that works for you. Find a quiet and comfortable place to meditate, and allow yourself to be fully immersed in the present moment. If thoughts or feelings arise, acknowledge them without judgement and gently return your attention to the breath.

When you’re finished with your meditation, take a few moments to ground yourself. Express gratitude for the experience, and set an intention to bring peace and wisdom into your everyday life.

Kindness

Loving kindness meditation is one of the most powerful ways to increase spiritual energy. It’s simple and easy to incorporate into your daily life, and it fosters compassion and empathy towards yourself and others.

Practicing kindness allows you to release blocks that are hindering your spiritual energy, like negative emotions and limiting beliefs. It also elevates your energetic vibration to a place of love and compassion, leaving you feeling more aligned and balanced.

It’s important to remember that we never know what anyone else is going through, and being kind to everyone, even the people you don’t like, is one of the best things you can do for your spiritual well-being. It can help you find peace and trust in the world, and it shows that we’re all connected. You can even try to be more kind to yourself, as self-compassion is just as important as compassion for others. It can help you feel a sense of balance and harmony that’s difficult to find in this chaotic world.

Community

In a time of political turmoil, divisiveness and a rise in extremist beliefs and behaviors, it is easy to lose our center, to feel sucked into the vortex of chaos. Spiritual energy can help us to stay grounded and centered in the face of adversity.

It is important to surround yourself with a community that shares your values and supports your journey. The more you connect with like minded people the higher your vibration will become.

Some people will emerge as ‘go to’ individuals within your spiritual community. This is normal, and it helps newcomers to know who might be able to support them and long term members to find ways to be of service. Personal qualities that facilitate community building – spiritual assets if you will – include being aware of and sensitive to the needs, beliefs, and emotions of others; taking pleasure in interacting with them; being disposed to seek out and value connections with others.

Self-care

Spiritual self-care often involves focusing on emotional wellness, including stress and anxiety reduction. It can include activities like deep breathing, meditation and yoga. It can also include techniques to help you build emotional resilience, so you can navigate life’s ups and downs with more ease.

It can also mean taking time for yourself to do things that nourish your spirit, such as allowing time for creativity, spending time in nature or choosing activities that lift your mood rather than drain it. It can also involve establishing healthy boundaries with others, such as limiting your interactions with people who drain your energy or avoiding toxic relationships altogether.

This kind of self-care often incorporates a holistic approach to wellness, so it’s important to set up routines that focus on caring for all aspects of yourself — physical, mental and emotional. It may also be helpful to include a cleansing practice using certified pure therapeutic grade essential oils in your self-care routine.
