What is spiritual growth?

Spiritual growth is the path we take which helps you develop your self-identity, nurture your meaningful relationships, commune with nature and recognize your own transcendence and unity with your soul.  This path will allow you to find true meaning in your life and connect with your spiritual side.  There are many paths that people can take to connect with their spiritual side, such as connecting to a religion, changing religions or connecting to nature.  You can follow a structured religion, look within to connect with yourself or chose a different religious affiliation.  Experiencing spiritual growth doesn’t mean that you have to join any new religion, it’s more about connecting to yourself and feeling true happiness and peace.   

Why should I grow my spiritual connection?

Reaching or renewing spiritual growth helps you to enhance abilities to handle difficult life decisions and situations.  By having a more profound spiritual connection, you will be able to handle everyday stress and let unwanted or unneeded emotions go.  This way you’re not carrying around emotions that can weigh down your soul and give you a massive weight on your shoulders.  Spiritual growth allows you to take the extra weight off of your shoulders and enjoy life once more.  It’s important to have a sense of purpose and overwhelming love for your daily life so you feel fulfilled, untroubled and carefree everyday.
