Spiritual awareness means recognizing and holding true life with meaning and purpose. The daily dramas and needless attachments begin to fade away to make room for who your true self is.
As we do this, we gain a more profound sense of wisdom and inner knowing and are more grounded in our daily lives.
What Is Spiritual Awareness (and Why Does It Matter)?
Spiritual awareness means we can expand our fundamental beliefs and even shed those pre-programmed childhood beliefs that no longer serve us.
Spiritual awareness is essential because it is who we are and who we are about to become on our karmic paths.
The Signs and Symptoms of Spiritual Awareness
You may come to certain revelations that explain those unanswered universal questions, thus creating peace and inner knowing. This is an evolutionary process that we karmically earn through deeds, actions, and introspection.
You begin to observe patterns in life and learn to let go of those that no longer serve you. For example, breaking a family pattern of abuse is one of the most profound patterns we can break. We no longer need those experiences.
We feel a deeper connection to nature, to GodSource, allowing a deeper inner peace.
Suddenly, you may notice synchronicities in your life, patterns in numbers and letters. You may feel incredibly connected to a person and find that you both begin to hear each other’s thoughts.
You intrinsically know what the other one is needing or experiencing.
Recognizing Moments of Heightened Spiritual Awareness
As we live our mortal lives, we take in those experiences that enhance our beingness. Sometimes, those moments are a heightened sense of compassion and pure love. You can be in the moment with your child, niece, or nephew.
When looking at your surroundings, you discover you are happy and joyful for no particular reason.
Your intuition and synchronicities start to flow effortlessly as if you knew the answer before you knew the question.
How Spiritual Awareness Affects Daily Life and Relationships
Spiritual awareness is a form of ascension. The adage, “Birds of a feather flock together.” As we become more spiritually aware, we realize our interests, thoughts, and other aspects of our lives begin to change.
This can cause distance in our relationships—the usual conversations around the weather become flat and dull.
We must remember that spirituality is not a contest, and we may need to expand our relationships.
Finding others on a similar path is helpful. But we also need to recognize that our loved ones who may not understand what you are going through are still good people.
The Journey Toward Spiritual Awareness
As we become more spiritually aware, we start to unlock those life mysteries. Higher truths become revealed to us. You begin to have awareness and connectedness with all that is around you, much like the quantum theory concept.
Steps to Begin Cultivating Spiritual Awareness
The beauty of spirituality is it is pure and simple. Practicing gratitude, mindfulness, meditation, and prayer are fundamental tenets of cultivating spiritual awareness.
The best part is they are free. They do take time.
Find the balance of time that you can afford. Work with what you have, learn, and grow.
Challenges in Developing Spiritual Awareness
We tend to cling to what is familiar to us. This is a natural tendency. However, we need to recognize what patterns and aspects of us no longer serve us- and why.
Then, we must learn how to change or release them for our greater good.
Overcoming Obstacles and Resistance on the Path to Greater Spiritual Awareness
This can be difficult- let go and let it flow. Learn how to break those resistances.
The Importance of Patience and Persistence in Spiritual Growth
Spiritual growth has ebbs and flows, highs and lows. Not every moment will be amazing. But there will be amazing moments. Be patient with yourself and with those around you.
As we ascend in our spiritual growth, we must remember that those around us are probably doing their best to understand the new you.
Tools and Practices to Deepen Spiritual Awareness
These are just a few tools and practices you can incorporate into your daily life. You don’t need to do them all every day.
If you feel like writing one day, doing nothing the next, and meditating the following Saturday, know that it is right for you.
#1) Meditation and Mindfulness Practices to Enhance Spiritual Awareness
Mediation and mindfulness help to improve our self-awareness and discover who we are and where we want to go.
They help us to delve deeper into our spiritual practices, giving us insights into our behaviors, patterns, and emotions.
#2) Engaging with Nature to Connect with Your Spiritual Self
Nature brings us back to GodSource. It also grounds and heals us. Be still. Listen to the sounds around you. Leave your electronics behind. Most of us need to be cleared of electromagnetic smog that is left from all of our devices.
I call this a digital detox, and it can be one of the best things we can do for ourselves, and especially for our children.
#3) Journaling as a Tool for Spiritual Reflection
Journaling is many things for many people. Do what is right for you—Journal about your day, nature, goals, and inspirations. Write about what your soul needs.
#4) The Role of Community and Spiritual Groups in Supporting Awareness
Finding community is huge. We have never been more disconnectedly connected in the history of humanity. Find your tribe. Move to another tribe.
Do what is right for your soul. A new community is being built right now, The Karmic Path Community.
Beginning Your Lifelong Journey of Spiritual Awareness
If you are seeking a connection to your higher self and need guidance on your spiritual path, a Spiritual Consultation could be helpful. When I work with people, we always work together as a team.
This is important because it enables the client to be able to hear, see, and sense what is true for them, thus creating more validity.
