Why You Lost Faith In Your Friends, The World and God (And How To Regain It Today) | The Doubt Episode | Spiritual Awakening & Mindful Living | Ep.39
Om avsnittet
Doubt is a slow poison that sneaks into your spiritual practice unnoticed and shakes the very foundations of your spiritual beliefs. Without proper counter measurements doubt can destroy everything you built up so carefully over the months and years of your spiritual awakening. In this episode we clarify when and why doubt becomes problematic. And we offer practical spiritual guidance to prevent the doubt-monster from sinking its fangs too deep into your spiritual practice.
Spirit Matters is a show that helps you integrate a spiritual awakening experience into your daily life. We take you beyond the confusion, frustration and spiritual loneliness to a grounded practice of mindful living centred in heart-based wisdom.
After this episode you’ll know:
- how the ‘Santa Clause problem’ lies at the root of the emergence of doubt in our lives
- why silence is the best medicines against doubt
- how to recognize when doubt arises and what to do to counteract it
- how some spiritual traditions use doubt in a positive sense
If you’re going through a spiritual awakening or navigating a dark night of the soul, doubt will not only slow down your progress but will make you question the very reality and usefulness of your spiritual practice. But if you take the right actions, it doesn’t have to derail your journey.
We offer five spiritual strategies as practical tools for overcoming spiritual doubt, especially during those moments when your inner world feels wobbly and you’re wondering what to do when you lose faith.
Tune in, breathe, and let’s walk through this together.
