- Spiritual Center Alignment Through Yoga
By: Irwin Myers | - Alignment is a word that many of us would not connect to spiritual center. In fact, we would probably associate alignment with what needs to be done in order to make a car safe and less wobbly on the road. In reality, however, the alignment of the spinal column, the very essence of yoga, is also important in achieving a spiritual core or inner peace. Aside from the physical benefits of the proper alignment of the body, you can also derive mental clarity and emotional peace through yoga. Do not t ...

- Spiritual Center And Reiki Attunement
By: Irwin Myers | - Getting in touch with your spiritual center is always important for your mind, body and soul's well-being. It is believed that everyone is born with a connection to a great energy source. Unfortunately, as we get older, we begin to lose that connection due to all of the negativities that we're introduced to.
Whether it's substance abuse, negative energy formation, illness, disability or some other physical or emotional problem, barriers are placed in our way that need to be clea ...

- Yoga And The State Of Spiritual Awakening
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - You read and hear so much about being consciously aware and spiritual awakening, but what does it all mean? What does Yoga have to do with it? How could Yoga practice cause a practitioner to live with intention and complete mindfulness?
Firstly, let's talk about being consciously aware. One of my Yoga students is celebrating her 96th birthday this weekend. Her husband died quite young and she raised three children by herself. You might picture someone who is bitter, comes to class ...

- Spiritual Health And Aromatherapy
By: Verdel J.Maclean | - A variety of spiritual religions or feelings exist. A misconception is that spiritual beliefs are related to religion. Many times this is true but sometimes that is not the case. Since the beginning of time spiritual health has been as important as body health to some people. Many people believe that a healthy spiritual health will lead to a healthy life overall. IT seems to be true that physical, mental and spiritual health are heavily related and that they can directly affect one another. For ...

- Spiritual Questions For People
By: Charlie Reese | - In this day of political correctness, it's sometimes difficult to come up with conversation starters that won't come back and bite you. Many people, especially if they're the shy type, may feel that there are no appropriate questions to ask people for fear of causing offense or misunderstandings from which they can't recover. The result is a bunch of wallflowers, dying on the vine for any meaningful communication. Here we take a look at five questions which will stimulate everyone's thinking and ...

- Manifesting Your Spirituality
By: Rijuta Tooker | - One might ask, What is spirituality and what does manifesting your spirituality mean? A spiritual life is always natural and normal. A spiritual person is a normal person, and most importantly, must be divinely practical in his or her day-to-day activities. In divine practicality, we realize that spirituality does not negate our outer life. We therefore pay close attention to the details of our daily life in a practical way and at the same time to our spiritual life within. We are not liv ...

- Yoga In Practice - The Law Of Attraction
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - How does Yoga relate to the "Law of Attraction?" We often hear about the universal concept of attraction, but how many of us are aware of it as it happens throughout the day? Let's take a closer look at our Yoga practice and how we influence the world around us with our thoughts.
Most people feel that actions and words are all that counts. If they think negative thoughts, they assume there will be no repercussions. Yet, negative thoughts create pessimism and influence the outcome ...

- The Limits Of Mysticism - Eckhart Tolle Meets Anthroposophy
By: jgraf | - In my experience questing for understanding of spiritual aspects of the human community, I have had occasion to encounter some unusual synchronicities. One such event emerged while perusing a lecture by noted Initiate and spiritual scientist, Rudolf Steiner. Steiners statement, pertaining to 13th Century mystic, Meister Eckhart, ran as follows: (to paraphrase) Eckhart mistook the seed of his next life (accrued from wisdom of his then current life) for the God within, as he was not ...

- Do You Believe In A Universal Spiritual Energy?
By: Prema Baba Swamiji | - Does a universal spiritual healing energy exist that can seemingly create miracles in your life? Can this energy accelerate your spiritual enlightenment? Can this energy also heal your body and mind?
Many cultures think there is. Let's take an imaginary vacation around the world and explore this energy.
Imagine traveling to the big island of Hawaii. You investigate an active volcano and witness scientists placing steel rods into the lava.

- Yes, You Are One With The Entire Universe
By: Jack Armstrong | - The concept that we all are one with each other, and with the Universe, is far easier for most of us to espouse than to truly understand.
One of the basic tenets of most spiritual belief systems is that the entire Universe, including our world and each of us, was created by an all-powerful Source that is beyond the ability of our human minds to comprehend completely.

- Yoga In Practice - How To Find Peace Of Mind
By: Paul M. Jerard Jr. | - Many Yoga practitioners are familiar with the value of a silent retreat to an Ashram or another sacred place. An extended silence turns the mind inward, which makes us more mindful during Yoga and meditation practice. Silent Yoga retreats give us "breathing room" and allow our minds a chance to wind down.
This is all well and good, but what if you do not have weeks to awaken your inner light in the company of your favorite Guru? You completely realize the benefits of relaxing and ...

- Journaling - A Self-care Practice
By: true2you | - When many of us think of self-care, we immediately think about all the things we should be doing for ourselves but aren't. We remind ourselves we should exercise or start eating healthy. We might even think about getting out to enjoy a cup of coffee with a friend. Some moms express a desire to spend more time with God. If we're really fantasizing about self-care, we might even dream about getting a massage, taking a nap, or going away to a spa for the weekend. But the reality is moms strugg ...

We all know the difficulty in changing the habitual behaviors that do not serve us, and successfully taking actions that support our desire to live a full, abundant, and peaceful life.

- 4 Steps For Giving The Gift Of Meaningful And Spiritual Chanukah And Christmas Celebrations
By: Nina Amir | - Despite the fact that the observance of Chanukah involves the lighting of candles and Christmas has become known for its show of lights, often Jews and Christians alike find themselves spiritually in the dark during these winter holidays. It's difficult to feel enlightened by holiday observances when the meaningful or spiritual components of these holy days have been forsaken for the rush of purchasing, giving and receiving gifts alone. In fact, opening presents turns into an empty act when the ...

- Creating Thirst In Your Spiritual Conversations
By: Gary Rohrmayer | - In my opinion most of the evangelistic training that is available is geared towards non-receptive people and is apologetically driven. Don't get me wrong, I believe we should all be trained and be able to give a reason for what we believe. But I am convinced there needs to be more training on how to identify those who have a higher degree of receptivity to the gospel message.
Here are some "quick hits" on how to create thirst in your spiritual conversations:
1. Look ...

- Why Do We Have To Practice Being Spiritual?
By: Nina Amir | - Have you ever wondered why we those of us on a spiritual path are told to have a "practice"? Imagine if we all joined a spiritual team and got together every day for practice. What would we do? Would we run prayer sprints? Would we stretch our beliefs? Would we scrimmage different religions? Truth be told, practice is just as important to becoming a spiritual person as it is to becoming a great soccer player, swimmer or baseball player.
A spiritual practice is much like an ath ...

- Redefining The Meaning Of Life, Part 2
By: Ada Porat | - It is not the events of life, but the meaning that we attach to these events, that brings either pleasure or suffering. And that meaning is driven by our deepest fears and desires. We suffer whenever life seems to be in conflict with these desires.
How do we turn this around?
If we want this suffering to end, we need to move our perspective out of identification with our human personality with its ego-based thinking mind and toward identification with our true natur ...

- Redefining The Meaning Of Life, Part 1
By: Ada Porat | - Whenever good or bad fortune strikes, most of us spend some time pondering why it happened. We do this because the conditioned mind reasons there must be some meaning to it, just as it seeks to find meaning behind all of life's events. The mind always looks for meaning in everything.
In fact, it is not the event itself, but the meaning that the mind attaches to an event, that brings either pleasure or suffering. The event may also be thought to reflect either God's favor or disfa ...

- Waiting As A Spiritual Practice
By: Julie Redstone | - The capacity to wait, despite its very ordinariness, can be a profound spiritual tool with which to dismantle the needs and pressures of both our ego and will. Important in this is the kind of waiting that takes place, for there are many kinds, and not all of them are capable of releasing the ego in a way that is beneficial to spiritual growth.
The kind of waiting that is transformative is based on the capacity for surrendering our desire to have things be the way our smaller self ...

- Move Through The Fear Of Having A Spiritual Experience
By: Nina Amir | - Lately, I've found myself looking more carefully at my life -- what I want it to look like and what I have to do to create that reality. I have moved closer to many of my goals, but there are a few that involve, as author Thomas Moore would say, "care of the soul" that I have not taken steps toward creating.
Although I often complain about not having enough time to meditate, read spiritual books, journal, or pray, lack of time really is not what has stopped me from achieving my ...

- The Art And Practice Of Creating Sacred Space
By: Nina Amir | - "Build for me a sanctuary and I will dwell among you." Exodus 25:8-9
In this one verse from the Old Testament, or Torah, lays an invitation for each of us. We are asked to create a sanctuary in which to join together with God. Thus, these 11 words serve as the core of my teaching about creating sacred space.
What follows this verse is a detailed description of how to build the mikdash, or sanctuary, which is also called a mishkan, or tabernacle. Students of Tora ...

- Daily Meditation - Spiritual Support For Today's World
By: Mashubi Rochell | - In days of old, spiritual life was separate from "regular life". People went to church or temple once a week, and then got on with the rest of their lives. Daily meditation was something that only nuns, priests, rabbis or monks did.
In today's world, our understanding of spiritual life is changing. More and more we are understanding that all of life is sacred, and at the same time, there seems to be less and less time available for us to slow down and connect with our innermost ...

- Practice
By: Gregory Anne Cox | - When we refer to certain professions we call the business of it a practice. My friend's husband has a dental practice, I have a coaching practice, my brother practices law. Within those parameters we might refer to the dentist as "excellent", the coach as "supportive" and the lawyer-at least in my brother's case-as "ethical." I've been thinking about the different ideas around the word "practice."

- The Blessing Of The Present Moment
By: Mashubi Rochell | - At each moment in our daily lives, we have an unprecedented opportunity. Generations before us did not have this blessing of spiritual awareness that is available today. Humanity as a whole is awakening, and we are actively participating in this process even if we are not consciously aware of it.
One of the simplest and most profound of spiritual teachings asks us to be in the present moment. This is an ancient teaching, and today has even greater meaning. With the advent of globa ...

- The Healing Presence Of God's Love
By: Mashubi Rochell | - God's love as a healing presence in the world is growing stronger daily. Many people are not yet able to perceive this growing presence of light, because there also exists at this time a thick cloud of negative energy that is surrounding the Earth. This acts to obscure both the perception and the consciousness of people, and to create feelings of isolation and despair.
These feelings are not the spiritual reality of this time; they are produced by the presence of much negative ene ...

- Keep Your Mind Where Your Body Is: Practice Daily Exercises To Achieve Awareness
By: Tom Russell | - Copyright 2006 Tom Russell
Awareness is unity with the present moment. Being fully aware brings together your spirit, mind, emotions, and body. And awareness is inherently expansive; it grows whenever you grant it the opportunity. Therefore, awareness is dynamic and constantly probing the edges.
Keeping your mind where your body is--being fully aware--is a noble and sane way to live! J. Krishnamurti told a story about a man who came to see him to discuss his problem ...

- Practice Self-surprise: A Practical Way To Develop The Power Of Instant Choice
By: Tom Russell | - Copyright 2006 Tom Russell
Everything depends on our power of choice. We choose to be in the present, choose to observe ourselves, and choose to develop independence and self-reliance.
However, for many of us, our energy of instant choice has been dormant for too long. How do we best restore this power? Reading about spirituality on its own can certainly never do it, but we can take action. For example, we can abruptly exit unproductive streams of thought and hypnot ...
