Do you have any SPIRIT in your life? Or maybe being SPIRITUAL? Or not?
In my profile, I talk about holistic coaching of the body, mind, and SPIRIT. It seems to resonate with many as they tell me so at our first meeting.
But what exactly is SPIRIT?
There seems to be no one definition out there, and certainly not a single one that all clients have.
To some, it is about belief in higher powers. I quickly note that I am agnostic to any religion and that it is their connection, or lack thereof, that we would be coaching on.
To others, it is about their own beliefs in life, and their values. So something more local to themselves, and working through those, both cognitively and energetically to power their journey in life in a more positive way than before.
So we do work in values exploration and making ourselves aware of what we value fundamentally, which typically then empowers us to look at the world differently and be a more effective part of it. We examine our beliefs, and work to unwind beliefs that do not serve us any more, so that they no longer limit us in life.
And still for others, it’s a different connection within themselves. Or perhaps a RE-connection in some cases. A common disconnect I see in 21st century humans is between the head and the heart and gut.
Since the dawning of the Age of Reason back in the late 1700s/early 1800s, humans have revered thinking and that we can reason our way to success, fulfillment, the right decisions – whatever we desire. However, here now in the 21st century, it is evident that we are thinking WAY TOO MUCH and that reason alone isn’t getting us where we thought it would.
Renewing that connection with those essential parts of ourselves which have critical information about who we are, who we want to be, and what we need right now, then adds missing information to our processes which then resolves instantly overthinking, indecision, and overwhelm.
You can’t find what is inside you on Google – sorry!
So SPIRIT, or being SPIRITUAL, can mean many things to many people. No matter what it means to you, it could be the missing link in your ability to move forward in your life, to revealing your purpose, or even healing on many levels.
When you think of SPIRIT, what comes up for you? Do you have a SPIRITUAL side that helps power you through life? What might be missing in your life, that SPIRIT or being SPIRITUAL can fill?
