Practices for you
Some challenges you may face
Be careful, dear Feeler, that you don't get too smug in your spirituality. Your full heart is a powerful influence - use it well. Your personal spiritual experience allows you to worship anywhere you feel joy. It's easy for you to get too isolated in your spirit. To stay grounded, engage in acts of service for others beyond yourself and your usual group of loved ones. Engage your inner Advocate and volunteer in your community.
The work of nurturing your spirit starts with your relationship with yourself. Whether your health and happiness are suffering, or you want to learn to prevent future problems, tending to and cultivating your spirit is a critical part of self-care and healthy habits. And taking care of your spirit requires new ways of thinking.
In this Ebook, you will learn to identify the strong and not-so-healthy aspects of your spirit’s well-being and grasp the real power of the nine fruits of the spirit and how they can transform your life for the better.
