Om avsnittet

Do you sometimes feel that spiritual growth is an uphill battle in a world of diminishing attention spans, choice paralysis and digital overload? It doesn't have to be that way. In this episode we solve living in an age of distraction while wanting to meditate deeply and practice true mindfulness.

⁠Spirit Matters⁠⁠ is a podcast for anyone exploring spirituality from the spiritual heart—an invitation to stay present here and now, see the divine in everything, and gently surrender to life as it unfolds.

At the end of this episode you'll know:

  • why boredom is necessary for spiritual growth
  • the benefits of information hygiene and how to practice it mindfully
  • how to transition from the small unhappy "i" to the all-embracing happy "I".

Gen-Z is not the only one who is struggling with digital overload, burnout and too much social media use. We wanted to explore the challenges the 21st century is posing on the modern spiritual seeker and offer you ways how to move beyond them to live a spiritually meaningful life.
