How often do you ask yourself why you are here on Earth? How much time do you spend thinking about your purpose?
We live in a very materialistic society where we are constantly bombarded with advertisements telling us what we should or shouldn’t eat, drink, wear, etc.
Our lives revolve around our jobs, our families, and our social circles. This leaves little room for reflection and contemplation.
It’s important to take some time out of your day to reflect on life and ponder over the meaning of existence. Meditation helps you connect with your inner self and discover your true purpose.
Getting in touch with your spiritual side is essential if you want to find happiness and fulfillment in life. So how do we do it? This article is here to help.
What Is Your Spiritual Side?
Before we can get into meditation, let’s first define what spirituality means to you. Spirituality is an expression of one’s beliefs about themselves and values regarding God, the universe, and man.
Spirituality is also considered to be the search for truth, beauty, goodness, and love.
There are many ways to practice spirituality, but all share common goals:
- A sense of connection to something greater than oneself;
- An understanding that there is more to life than just physical survival;
- The ability to transcend the limitations of the body and mind;
- The desire to know who we truly are;
- The quest for peace, harmony, and balance within ourselves and the world at large;
- The need to make a difference in this world;
- The need to learn from past mistakes and move forward;
- The desire to understand the nature of reality;
- The need to be connected to others;
- The desire to feel joy and bliss.
How To Get In Touch With Your Spiritual Side
There are many ways to get in touch with your spiritual side.
You can meditate, pray, read sacred texts, go to church, attend a yoga class, join a group, volunteer, write down your thoughts, listen to music, watch movies, play sports, dance, sing, or simply think about these things.
There are no wrong answers as long as they bring you closer to your inner being. If you don’t have any ideas yet, try asking yourself questions like:
What am I doing today? Why am I alive? Why was I born? Where did I come from? Who created me? Where will I go when I die?
Do I believe in God? Do I believe in reincarnation? Am I happy? Are my actions helping me become a better person?
You may not always feel comfortable talking about these topics, but by bringing them up you can start a conversation.
By starting conversations you’ll begin to open up to new possibilities. Try answering these questions every once in a while and see where it takes you.
Let’s look at the ways to get in touch with your spiritual side in closer detail:
Meditation
Meditation is a great way to get in touch with the spiritual side of yourself. It allows you to relax and clear your mind of distractions.
When you’re relaxed, you’re able to focus on your inner self. As you continue to meditate, your mind becomes clearer and your spirit begins to awaken.
Meditation has been proven to reduce stress levels, increase concentration, improve memory, lower blood pressure, and relieve pain. But most importantly, meditation helps us connect with our true selves.
Yoga
Yoga can be a great way of getting in touch with your spirituality and spiritual side. Yoga is a combination of breathing exercises, stretching, and relaxation techniques.
These exercises help you to release tension and build strength. They also allow you to tap into your subconscious mind.
This type of exercise is very beneficial because it makes you aware of what’s going on inside your head.
Manifest
Manifestation can be defined as “the process of consciously creating something out of nothing.”
Manifestation is one of the keys to attaining anything good in your life and getting in touch with your spirituality.
If you want to manifest money, love, health, happiness, or success then you must first create an intention for that specific thing.
Then you must clear your mind and visualize your goal clearly in your mind. Finally, you must take action towards achieving that goal.
The Power Of Belief
Belief is another key component to getting in touch with your spiritual self. Believe that you have the power to change your reality.
Believe that you deserve everything you desire. Believe that there is a reason why you were put here on this planet.
Believe that you are special and unique just the way you are. Believe that you are worthy and deserving of all the best things in life.
Music
Listening to certain types of music can help you connect with your spirituality. Some people find that listening to Christian music helps them connect more with their faith.
Others listen to classical music which they feel brings them peace and tranquility.
Whatever kind of music you choose, make sure it’s uplifting and positive. Music can enhance your mood and bring out the best in you.
Prayer
Another way to get in touch spiritually is through prayer. Prayer is the act of communicating with someone higher than yourself. Praying allows you to communicate directly with your God(s).
This communication gives you a chance to ask for help, guidance, strength, wisdom, and protection.
It is important to remember that God(s) does not judge anyone based on their prayers, rather, a godly figure only judges people based on how they treat other people and live their life.
Reading Sacred Texts
If you’ve never read anything sacred before, then perhaps reading holy books would be a good place to start.
These books contain stories of heroes, legends, and myths. They also tell of events that happened thousands of years ago.
Reading these books will allow you to gain insight into the lives of those who lived before you. Sacred texts often talk about spirituality and what we should do to find happiness.
Some of the more popular ones include the Bible, the Koran, the Bhagavad Gita, and the Tao Te Ching.
Spiritual guides and books are also helpful tools when trying to get in touch with your spirituality, because they teach you about different religions and philosophies.
You may even learn new ways to pray or meditate, and you might even be introduced to the power of crystals, which for some people can be key to opening up their spiritual side.
