Reasons Why You Are Still Struggling With Spirituality
Who still believes in anything anymore?
The sad thing I find, is that this generation of 2023 don't seem to believe in much more than themselves these days.
We have lost something very important, and the fabric of society is falling away and being eroded and it's not doing anyone any favours.
The personal god (ego)has taken over and these days people don't answer to anything anymore but the call of their own wants..

Back in my day many people grew up in a religious home, brought up with some type of spirituality. Religion is considered in broad terms spirituality, but it comes in many forms.
Most people would have had some spiritual/Religious teaching, they would have learnt this from their parents or the school they attended. Most schools had religious teaching, and in general we had a huge population of Religious people.
Most teachings were fear based I will grant you that, but at the same time family values and morals were also important within the teachings.

Believe this or you go to Hell
Do this or you go to Hell
Behave this way or you will be punished
Conform or you will be excommunicated
Be Submissive or be punished
When you are a child, fear driven language is used to get you to conform to a certain behaviour, (Neuro Linguistic programming)
As a child we are so impressionable, the beliefs systems you are taught as children will underlay our belief systems as we get older.
Is it the community spirit of a church and the companionship of like minded people.
Is it the gathering of people who have the same set of belief systems and because of this they are more trustworthy?
Would it be the same feeling if you joined a gym and had a community of people there that had like minded information and interests as you?
Is it something very personal and intimate where it does not require others to be involved?
It is food for thought simply for pondering on?
What is it that you struggle with about Spirituality?
Answer: Find the programme you have running, look at your belief systems, and you will find that could be the issue.
Time to Reflect.
Why are you struggling with what you believe?
What are you questioning?
When something obviously doesn’t feel right to you, you are required to investigate.
If you are struggling with the concept of your own belief system than you need to change what you believe.
Somewhere you have learnt something that goes against your insightful intuition. This is a time you need to be totally honest with yourself regardless of consequences.
If you are struggling with spirituality you have a program running that is a conditioned message that must be looked at.
You may find once you dig deeper and find the source of this struggle, you will have a whole new view on spirituality. Don’t be afraid of change, find the programme that is running and look at it closely.
Is spirituality something you really need?
Answer: discard what you don’t need.
Throw It Out.
Have you considered that your beliefs may not be your own, I am serious, have you asked yourself why is spirituality important to me?
What do I get from my beliefs?
how does it benefit my life?
Theses questions need answers and you need to be sure about them.
Are you struggling with imposed religious beliefs, and it is causing conflict in your life, can you live without it?
If the answer is yes than discard your religious beliefs, let the old fall away and bring in something new that is uplifting and inspiring, holding on to something old that serves no purpose is a wast of time and energy, and whats more it’s stopping you from moving forward. Discard what you don’t need.
Remember life is all about flowing, so let change flow through you, let new things come and old things go. You are learning new things every single day, monitor you thoughts and feelings and only absorb things that are good for you on all levels.
How does spirituality make you feel?
Answer: Analyse how accommodating your spirituality is to the rest of your life, does it support you?
Lastly but not least how does spirituality really make you feel.?
I would hope that it makes you feel awesome, if not, why not?
If you go through the five steps of looking within to find the answers you should by now know the answer to this question.
Spirituality is an extension of who you are as a human being. It should lift you, comfort you and be there as a leaning pole when things get tough.
It should be unconditional, spirituality is not punishment, it is not judging, it is not controlling,
Spirituality should be insightful, meaningful, and loving.
It should be accepting unconditionally, it should be your rock.
So stop to analyse how accommodating your spirituality is to the rest of your life, does it support you?
Creativity.
Spirituality reaches out to each and every one of us in the hope that we will understand what it truly means.
Spirituality is the melody, the sound of our own voice, a voice not yours, but of you.
Spirituality is about creativity, freedom, wholeness, unconditional love, freedom to be individual, It is enlightening, intuitive, compassionate. It is all we can be, it is our soul moving through us emotionally, physically, mentally and more.
If your view of spirituality is different, than your belief system is probably religious based not spiritual, and yes there is a big difference.
Think about it.
