Your Spiritual Journey Can Begin By Finding The Right Path For You

Discovering your spiritual journey isn’t based on simply finding your personal path. Wouldn’t it be nice if it were that easy? Ah, but then you’d miss the adventure of self-discovery. 

What is a spiritual journey?

Most people have taken a side road - probably several side roads - before discovering that centered, calm space that resonates deeply with their soul, spirit, and personal path. That space where you simply know you’ve found it - whatever "it" is - and feel at ease, balanced and content: that’s what finding your spiritual journey is about.

If beginning your spiritual journey requires attention, it is often not about the destination. Discovering your spiritual path isn’t something you can put on a ‘to do’ list - Tuesday: "discover spiritual purpose in life"! But you can make it easier to chance upon or stumble into your spiritual path. You can heighten the probability of finding that calm and centered personal space with a few simple techniques.

Passport for taking your spiritual journey.

Ways Of Starting Your Spiritual Journey

First, quit worrying about whether or not you will discover the right way to begin your spiritual journey. Anxiety and fear only serve to move you further away from that very path your soul is seeking. Spending time wondering whether you’re on your spiritual path cheats you of this moment on your spiritual journey. And this moment is part of your spiritual path. Actually, the present moment, IS where you start your spiritual journey. The rest is simply details.

Naturally you wonder about these details - whether you should live in a certain place, take a particular job, study a particular religion or philosophy, stop or continue your educational endeavors, or stay in a relationship with someone. Always pay attention to your inner sense, your intuition, about what is right for you and your soul spirit when it comes to those details. And don’t forget to use your common sense, too.

With practice, you’ll learn to access and apply that inner voice, your intuition, in decision-making, along with those other handy tools like common sense, logic and analysis. Learning to listen to your inner voice and tuning out your own emotional chatter and the well-meaning advice of others isn’t easy. But you’ll find yourself on a far less stressful spiritual path if you put what feels best to you on a gut level - an intuitive level - first.

How do I find my spiritual journey?

Meditate on your choices. Meditation is powerful. Ponder the possibilities. Allow yourself to imagine what your ideal life would involve so you can discover your spiritual path. If you still remain completely baffled about the ‘right’ choice, do nothing for a while. Allowing things to unfold is fine - as long as you are not avoiding what you sense, deep down, is the right (and probably more difficult) choice and allow your spiritual journey to progress. Pay attention to your soul spirit as you search. Give yourself time when you need it. Don’t rush. Savor the process. It’s the spiritual journey after all, not the destination, that’s important. Otherwise, it would be called a spiritual destination, not a spiritual path.
