The fragmented parts of us..
Spiritual mentoring can really help when we are going through the end of a particular phase in life.
That could be the end or loss of a relationship, change or loss of job, or change or loss around parenthood or family status.
These kinds of things often form huge parts of our identity and how we see ourselves. So when we have a change and loss in one of these areas, it can feel very discombobulating for our sense of self.
The beauty of spiritual practices is that it helps to cultivate a sense of self that’s identified with our innermost essence, rather than facets of our personality, all the roles that we play in life. Our essence becomes then a golden thread that all animate all the different phases of our life, all the roles that we play, all of the evolutions of who we are as a human being.
We have been taught by society to identify more with our personality rather than our essence. I believe this is why so many of us feel like our life is falling apart when we have a change in relationship job or another major role that we’ve been playing. It’s a real dark night of the soul kind of moment.
Of course it’s important to mourn any kind of loss in life, but without the foundation of knowing who we are at the level of essence, I believe that these things feel infinitely more difficult.
I often help and guide people who are going through situations like this through a journey of self discovery, using trauma, informed psychology to notice any patterns that have been playing out, but also to create a metacognition or separation between these patterns and who they really are as an essence.
All of the tools that I use meditation psychology, the subconscious reprogramming astrology are all designed to help to get to know yourself better on a multi dimensional level. When we know ourselves are the essence and then also understand the personality on the roles that we play, it can give so much direction to our life.
These are tools of guidance that everyone wants to have in the tool kit that will be able to help us navigate through all stages of life, having a strong sense of self no matter what role we are playing.
