Spiritual Plumbing
In my realm of work, people are usually “symptom aware”. They know they’re unhappy, anxious, stressed out, struggling or suffering in some way.
Where they get stuck is that they're often not “problem aware” (why or what’s really happening) and they’re definitely not “solution aware”.
Meaning they’re not making the connection between the symptoms/problems they’re having and how somebody like me could help them.
It’s not like when people are struggling or suffering that they lay in bed at night thinking; “If only I had a spiritual mentor.” HA!
Instead, they do what humans tend to do when they’re sad, stressed, overwhelmed, scared or anxious; things like binge Netflix, drink booze, scroll social media, shop online, get high, keep busy, overwork…
Basically anything to distract themselves, because they’re uncomfortable and don’t like how they’re feeling and want to numb it with whatever they can find. Rather than trying to understand where the cause of the problem lies and how to heal it from the inside out, the people often look for external quick fixes or avoid it altogether.
Today on The Karen Kenney Show, we’re talking about our “Spiritual Plumbing” and how when it needs servicing or maintenance, a spiritual mentor can be wicked helpful and support you to get unstuck, stop the leaks, remove the blocks to Love and get back into the flow of life.
You must play a proactive role in your own healing, but a Spiritual Mentor can hold the container of strength and vision of you, and for you until you’re ready to remember, receive and run with it yourself.
