Spiritual Therapy • Holistic Healing • Mindful Awareness

Many people are searching for deeper meaning in their lives. They have a distinct feeling that there is more to life than meets the eye. They may feel their heart longing for something more, even though they enjoy all the material successes. Sometimes, a life inquiry stems from some type of suffering or an unexpected crisis or trauma in their lives. How ever the questioning begins, the search for deeper meaning can introduce us to concepts and experiences beyond what we have previously understood about life. Discontentment or suffering can create an opening if we allow it, and being mindful of our experience can help us to honor what we are experiencing.

The funny thing about “spirituality” is that we may have an old preconceived notion of what being spiritual means. Like, needing to be poor, enduring a life of solitude, devoting our life to others, or shaving our head and joining an ashram for the rest of our life. We have a limited perspective of what spirituality really means. We may think it means something completely separate from our human experience….our real, alive, juicy and often messy human experience. That somehow to be spiritual means to bypass the messy parts of human existence. Another misconception about being spiritual is that it exists some place “out there” or “up there,” so we look outside ourselves for answers and ways to become “spiritual.”  From my perspective, spirituality is much simpler and more accessible than all that.
