Spiritual Counseling is founded on the understanding that we are spiritual beings in our essence having a human experience. This means that whether we are trying to overcome anxiety, depression, limiting beliefs, or emotional trauma, the healing cannot be complete without including our spiritual dimension. In fact, I can state with absolute certainty, based on my personal experience, and my experience working with my clients, that only when we reconnect with and begin living from our True Self as a spiritual being, we are able to transcend our limitations, heal the wounds from the past, and blossom into the full potential of our Unique Genius. This service is dedicated to the evolution of the client's spiritual life, where each session is tailored to the person's unique experience of the path. Here are some of the most common issues I help my clients with as part of this service. ~ Spiritual awakening and its many "symptoms" (please read more about this below) ~ Understanding the past and current "human" challenges from the perspective of the Higher Self and its Highest Purpose ~ Healing the emotional traumas by recognizing and embracing one's True Power ~ Igniting the Fire in the Soul by finding the true "why" for the purpose of one's existence ~ Building an unshakable Self-Esteem that is not based on anything external ~ Cultivating mental, emotional, and spiritual resilience ~ Empowerment through discovering and applying your Spiritual Superpowers ~ Establishing and/or maintaining a spiritual practice ~ Understanding mystical experiences ~ Learning the neurobiological aspect of the spiritual evolution ~ "The Dark Night of the Soul" ~ Helping to adjust and thrive as an Awake Being ~ Clearing, aligning, and balancing the energy centers What is Spiritual Awakening? In the simplest language, Spiritual Awakening is "waking up" to or realizing the true essence of who we are as Spiritual Beings and the true nature of Reality. Spiritual Awakening can take many forms, and in some cases, it can be quite intense resulting in emotional or mental breakdowns or physical illnesses. For most people though the indications of this process can range from various negative emotions to questioning what was once accepted as true. Please see the list of most common "symptoms" below. While each person's path is unique, for reasons ranging from karmic to most mundane current life circumstances, the process itself evolves through stages that are common to most. If you are wondering if this is what's happening to you, here is the list of some of the most common indications of Spiritual Awakening in no particular order. The "symptoms" of Spiritual Awakening ~ Feeling that nothing is right with us, our life, and the world. An ever-present vague sense of discontentment. ~ Feeling different from others, not feeling the sense of belonging with most people. ~ Dissatisfaction with our achievements and our life, even if it's considered successful by society's standards. ~ Disappointment with our current religious views and beliefs. ~ Losing interest in things we once were passionate about. ~ Questioning our identity or our sense of identity dissolving, confusion about who we are and where we belong. ~ Finding our friends whose company we used to enjoy boring or unpleasant. ~ Loss of meaning, apathy, emotional emptiness, sense of groundless-ness. ~ Doubting our deeply held beliefs. Distrusting authorities, role models, and experts. ~ Depression caused by any of the above, yet seemingly having no obvious reason. ~ Addictions and other unhealthy ways of coping with the discomfort. ~ Asking the big questions: Is there God? What is Reality made of? Who am I? What's the purpose of Existence? While some of these could be caused by other reasons, I invite you to consider the possibility that those reasons themselves could be a sign that it is time to look deeper for answers.
