#45 Spiritual Life Explained – Part 2 – Free Will

A spiritual rather than religious deep dive into faith in God. We look at topics like what is faith, what happens if you lose it? How can you grow in faith? Why God a.k.a. "The Source" is not about belief or religion. Why some people are just not interested in faith and God, and how an absence of faith impacts their lives. This is a compassionate, non-judgemental discussion with exercises to help you understand and grow in faith. If you are spiritual, religious, both, or neither you may well find this podcast episode interesting.

This truly is a podcast of two halves, though they are both related to Health and Healing. Join me as we explore why to avoid toxic people, the dark arts, and Abraham's The Secret. Toxic People and Disease We kick off this heavyweight podcast exploring the spiritual factors involved in health and healing. Breaking from the mainstream naratives we delve into how our own choices and thoughts affect our wellbeing. We also examine how toxic people and the "Dark arts" / "Black magic" may be contributing to our dis-ease in life, and what if anything can be done about it. The Secret (Abraham's Law of Attraction) In the second half of this podcast we do a deep dive into the dark side of "The Secret" aka "The Law of Attraction" or "Abraham's Teachings". Importantly revealing why such "Manifesting" work might be spiritually counterproductive and ultimately retards your spiritual growth. The goal isn't to shock you, but rather to wake you up to spiritual dead-ends. Related resources... The full transcript, video and extra resources for Toxic People and Disease.

In this podcast we explore from a spiritual and non-religious perspective what reverence means and how your level of reverence supports or holds back your spiritual awakening. What is reverence really? Can you grow in reverence, how does it relate to worship, devotion, love and other positive aspects of awakening? Does reverence, God and worship only exist in religion or are they something far older and of benefit to you?

Humility is the first of The Six Virtues. It is only through being humble that we can truly explore the depths of our spirituality.

All will be explained and while belief systems may have value, what we are talking about is something far more profound and spiritually based on direct experience, rather than belief. Sounds interesting? Well being humble is one of the keys to finding out for yourself. So join me as we explore what humility is, how to develop it and to avoid traps and negative indoctrination.
