Your Journey To Spiritual Growth

By Andrew Murphy


In this day and age, one finds it difficult to grow spiritually with so much stress involved in the work place as well as with personal relationships. However, you have to bear in mind that when you persevere with spiritual growth, you will also find that there are certain things in life that begin to change, and this can be so rewarding.

Everyone needs someone to believe in. You may be putting your spouse first. You may rely on your parents or think the world of your children. However, these are people, and relationships don't last forever. Unfortunately, there is divorce, death and destruction that crosses paths. Where spirituality is concerned, you can be certain that you are not going to be abandoned.

You will begin to feel a great sense of freedom as you start this journey. However, you have to realize that it does take time. In fact, there is something new that you learn about yourself all the time. This is something that you are always learning about and it will never end. You begin to feel that you are less alone and there is a definite presence with you on a daily basis.

Of course, this is something that you have to work on. It does not come overnight. One lives in a stressful world with relationships that can create turmoil. The work place can cause more issues to arise. This is why meditation is so important. You start to discover more about who you really are by going deeper. It can be different for everyone, and you will soon realize how important it can be.

Of course, it is not always easy to know where to begin when you have not meditated before. However, it does not mean that you have sit on the floor and start to chant. There are many ways in which you can connect with someone else. For example, a lot of people decide to take a walk out in nature. It can be a good idea to take a walk after work or early in the morning.

Starting the day either meditating, spending quiet time by yourself or going for a walk will release a lot of the stress that you are going through. It can make you feel so much more alive and you will find that you will be struggling with less anxiety and depressive emotions in your life. This is something that a lot of mental health people encourage.

It can be helpful to read more about others who have grown from one point to another. This can be encouraging and it will motivate you with your own goals. Read a little devotion every day as soon as you get up. This will create discipline in your life. Meditation may be difficult at first, but with practice it comes naturally. Some people just prefer to spend quiet time by themselves.

It is also worthwhile keeping a journal by your side because this is a way in which you are able to keep track of your journey and you will be encouraged by this. It is especially useful when you are feeling discouraged. This will help you to stay motivated. Sometimes you may want to move too fast, and you have to remember to have patience because this is what is going to help you move forward in life.
