10 misconceptions about what it means to be a spiritual person — Follow Your Own Rhythm

Oh there are so many, but today I’ll just share 10. People have a certain idea of what it looks like to be spiritual, and if you don’t fit into that box, then you must not be a REAL spiritually awakened person ?

It’s easy to fall into this trap and instead of living our own truth, we get lost in “looking the part” and “playing the role” of a spiritual person. Of course this is all ego, it’s an identity we attach to, because being who we are as we are is not enough, but it’s also based in a false understanding of spirituality.

These misconceptions I talk about are false beliefs we have, as spiritual people, about what it means to be spiritual.

I just saw the movie “Soul,” which was really good by the way, and it pretty much summed up the essence of today’s video (which I recorded prior to seeing the movie). So that was a nice confirmation for me 🙂

But in essence, the biggest misconception about being spiritual is that the physical world and physical things no longer matter or mean anything. It’s as if once you wake up, you become numb to/disinterested in the physical world.

This couldn’t be further from the truth, and just as the movie so beautifully depicted, you ENJOY THE PHYSICAL WORLD MORE. The difference is that you’re not attached.

Here on earth, we have our five senses that we get to use to FEEL LIFE. In the spirit realm, we don’t have this ability.

When you listen to a good song, that euphoric feeling you get, THAT is what this is all about. When you fall in love, when you get inspired, when you are warm by a fireplace, when you have a bite of chocolate, or a sip of hot coffee, or even when you feel sad, these are FEELINGS and EXPERIENCES we get to have as humans. They are beautiful and magical no matter their nature, and we are here to ENJOY and embrace being human.

It’s quite ironic that the more spiritual you become, the more you start to love the physical aspects of life 🙂

So in today’s video, I go into more detail about this and share 10 misconceptions about what it means to be spiritual so that you can enjoy this experience more fully, and feel more free to BE YOURSELF.

I hope you find it inspiring and helpful and oh yea, grab some popcorn. It’s a lengthy one ?
