How spiritual coaching can help me

Spirituality can mean various things to different people. In general, it involves the realization and recognition, a belief, a feeling, perhaps a deep understanding, that there is something greater than oneself. For some this can mean an outside force at work, helping to guide our lives and those around us. For others there is a deep feeling of connection to the universe as a whole or perhaps to one’s own higher self. Whatever this “greater” notion is to you, this is what we would be speaking about when we talk about spirituality. The intense and grand nature of these ideas can, at times, bring questions, challenges, and issues which can be discussed and processed during spiritual coaching.

Challenges of Awakening

Once we begin to understand our spiritual selves, our cosmic and eternal selves, this changes the way we view our current lives. A “Spiritual Awakening” is often described as an eye opening and challenging process. Some of these challenges include:

– New or modified religious or spiritual beliefs

– Changes in values

– Relationship difficulties

– Identity questions

– New or modified sense of purpose (or questions regarding purpose)

Spiritual counseling can help us address some of these new understandings.
