Eight easy ways to feed your soul and deepen your spirituality in 2012.
Let go, and let God…
Trust in God to provide you with what you need in life (note, what you need, not what you want!). When we stop trying to control everything in our lives, we open ourselves up to what is presented to us. Allow your destiny to unfold by loosening your grip on the reins. Rely on the supreme giver, while you focus on the things that are within your power to change.
Gratitude is power
How grateful are you for what you have in your life? Giving thanks acknowledges everything we’ve been given, and allows us to truly appreciate the important things. Each day, give thanks for 10 people or things you are most grateful for before going to bed, and see how it changes your life.
Pray together, stay together
In your home, make prayer the foundation of your family. Praying together cements your bond as a couple and as parents to your children. Start a family tradition by making time for daily prayer: set aside five or 10 minutes every morning or evening and pray together as a family. You can take it in turns or elect one person to choose and read the prayers.
Let go of all your emotional baggage
Emotional baggage is everything that blocks your path to happiness: it can be a childhood hurt, guilt over something that happened long ago, a grudge against someone who hurt you or a negative belief (about yourself or somebody else) that you’re holding onto. Simply let it go – draw a line today and decide afresh who you want to be.
Focus on the simple joys
We get so caught up in raising children, workplace challenges and hectic day-to-day routines that we forget about the simple pleasures that bring us the greatest joy if we let them. It could be watching the sunset or strolling in a park or garden and marvelling at the beauty of nature, making a pot of delicious healthy soup, braiding your daughter’s hair, playing soccer with your son, walking the dog or listening to music – whatever your simple joy is, do more of it!
