Soulwork

How to do Soulwork

You are a divine spiritual being with a radiant soul, living in a sacred body temple, having human experiences.

Soulwork is the spiritual practice that connects you to God, Higher Power, Supreme Being, the Divine, etc., so that whatever you experience in your life can unfold with ease, grace, and peace.

Soulwork helps you:

  • Attune to your intuition, the still, small voice within.
  • Deepen your faith and spiritual maturity.
  • Enhance your spiritual growth and understanding.
  • Feel deeply grounded within your body and to the Earth.
  • Gain self-awareness.
  • Honor your self-care.
  • Manage your energy (not your time).
  • Nurture compassion for yourself and others.
  • Recognize your spiritual power.
  • Set and clarify intentions.
  • Suspend judgments.

 

Soulwork is a lifelong intentional practice, an unfolding of your pure, true nature.  So, your goal is not necessarily to perfect or correct something, but to expand your soul awareness and express your unique soul radiance.

Engage The Practice:

Soulwork, like prayer and meditation, is a daily practice, but it does not require hours of effort.  The most important thing is to turn within and listen to your intuition.  Even if nothing particular is revealed in those moments, the practice itself helps you remain attuned to what you feel, hear, and see within you and around you.  Then realizations and Ah-Ha moments become apparent, often in quiet, subtle ways.

However you choose to practice soulwork, be honest with yourself.  Stay flexible and open to adjusting, as needed.  Also, maintain a sense of gentle, good humor so you can enjoy the realization of finally “getting” it, whatever your “it” is, and in celebrating how far you have come today.  Trust that tomorrow is bringing additional enlightenment.

You may enjoy having a soulwork buddy, such as a spouse, partner, friend, or colleague.  Be sure that this is a person you trust to share your deepest desires and fears, and who will listen and keep sacred confidence with you, rather than offer you advice, correct your responses, or try to change your thinking.

While the soulwork offered on this site includes some specific questions, you also can apply these general questions to your current circumstances: 

  • What is my intuition telling me now?
  • What healing do I need now?  
  • What are my recent insights?
  • What assurance or re-assurance is being offered now?
  • What encouragement am I receiving now?
  • What doors are opening or closing for me now?
  • What wisdom is being offered now?
  • What clarity do I have now?
  • What guidance am I receiving now?
  • What are my new perspectives?
  • What beliefs, goals, and/or relationships do I want to reconsider?  
  • What am I willing to forgive for myself and others?
  • What healthy beliefs and behaviors can I nurture now?  
  • What unhealthy beliefs and behaviors can I release now?

 

Write your thoughts in the present tense, beginning with positive, affirmative phrasing such as:

  • I am
  • I see
  • I hear
  • I know
  • I feel
  • I give
  • I receive
  • I want
  • I forgive
  • I understand
  • I have
  • I do

 

Then, your complete affirmation might sound something like these:

  • Everything I need to know now is being shown to me.
  • I receive an abundance of good every day.
  • I am grounded in my faith, confident about what I can do today.
Create Sacred Space:

Commit to a specific daily time for reflection and schedule it in your calendar or planner, just as you do with other commitments.  For example: 30 minutes at 7:30 am, as you enjoy your morning cup of coffee or at 7:30 pm, while you enjoy an evening cup of tea and the kids are doing their homework.

Choose any space that feels comfortable for you.  For many of us, that means somewhere quiet and clutter-free, though for others it may mean walking a nature trail, floating on a raft, pumping the elliptical at the gym, digging in the garden, or soaking in a hot tub.

Remember, no matter where or when you choose, this is sacred time to honor, nurture, and care for yourself.  Stay grounded in the present, and trust the future to unfold in its best ways for you.
