1.1.9 #Exploring your Spirituality 

Spirituality is the single biggest resource available to guide and support you. 

Not as a concept or a belief system, but as something to be explored within the context of your own life, bringing together a toolkit of skills and experiences to further aid you as you grow. 

Spirituality gives a  perspective beyond the physical norms, yet still anchored and relating to, the physical, mental and emotional experiences of your own ever evolving life.

#Religion is one choice for your exploration and expression of spirituality. But by definition religions present themselves as a preformed package of beliefs for the believer to explore within the potential limitations of a corralled consensus. 

Yet there can be no one belief 'system' that trumps all others, most have a core of common truths that may have, through interpretation, been compromised by dogma, yet still have #inspirational wisdom in there, that you can include in your life without committing yourself to someone else’s entire #belief ‘system’.

Don’t wait for the perfect package to fall at your feet, allow your #beliefs and your ideas to breathe and develop. Every #spiritual concept is only useful and valid while it feels useful and valid for you and no one can define that current relevance except YOU! 

#Exploring spirituality is an organic process that will (if allowed) #evolve naturally, fuelled by growing #awareness, personal inner drive and life’s experiences. 

So don’t hold onto beliefs too rigidly, have ideas, then they may have room to #evolve and grow. 

Remember, they don’t define you, because as with all things; 

‘They show …  WHERE YOU ARE, NOT WHO YOU ARE**

**WHERE YOU ARE ; is a position statement along your evolutionary road.

**WHO YOU ARE ; is a constantly evolving, work in progress.

#SO TRUST YOURSELF AND BE KIND TO YOURSELF. x
