Spiritual Habits In Daily Life

In order to lead a successful, fulfilling, and interesting life, everyone needs the confidence and calmness that comes from gaining a connection with God.

However, in the modern world, we are so busy that sometimes it is difficult to take time to even just think about what we live for and in which direction we are moving, not to mention taking several hours a day to build a deep and sincere relationship with God. Therefore, most often we are vaguely aware that we need to develop, we need to pray, we need to discipline ourselves, we need to study God’s Word, but at the same time, most of the time, everyday affairs and responsibilities leave us little time for this.

As a result, the vague feeling that you need to search for meaning in your life and understand higher matters, on the one hand, and the lack of time for this, on the other hand, generates, in addition to everything, a latent feeling of guilt. We do not do something important, we reproach ourselves for it and still do nothing. Such inner anxiety further deprives us of strength and self-confidence.

To get rid of feelings of guilt and duality, we can either radically change something in life, or put up with everything and let it go “on the brakes”, or be creative and build a few spiritual habits directly into our daily life.

It is easiest to release everything “on the brakes” and go with the flow, but in this case, one cannot count on any interesting result. To radically change everything in your life, you need to have great willpower and courage to go against the prevailing stereotypes. But in order to build spiritual habits into your daily life, you need to show only a little creativity.

Sometimes getting yourself out of bed 30 minutes early to pray, meditate, or read God’s Word is very difficult. However, you can always buy a good player and headphones, upload a Bible, Divine Principle, or any other scripture there and listen to it while you cook breakfast, wash dishes, wash your face, or exercise. To increase the efficiency of this process, it is good to have a notebook for yourself, keep it somewhere at hand and write down the quotes you like. It doesn’t take much extra time, but it fills life with spirituality.

We commute to and from work every day. It takes me 15 minutes by the metro one way. I carry with me an educational book on the topic that interests me, and I read it for 15 minutes while driving one way and 15 minutes while driving in the other direction. Thus, within a month, I read a new book and learn something new. After reading, you just need to allocate half an hour of time to flip through the book and write out all the main ideas you like and turn some of them into practical action.

Also, after the metro, I need to go literally another 5 minutes by ground transport, three stops to the office. However, instead, I walk this distance in 12 minutes. I walk very quickly while fulfilling several goals at once: intensive walking (exercise), praying on the way (Spiritual Journey), scrolling through my head plans and affairs for the day (efficiency), breathing fresh air (health), learning not to depend on circumstances (I go in any weather).

We need to discipline ourselves and one good way to do this is with a cold shower. It is difficult, but also beneficial for willpower and health. Finding time for a cold shower every day is often unrealistic, but everyone can do a contrast shower every time we go to wash. Let it only be twice a week, but it will still have an effect. We washed, then took a hot shower, and before leaving the bath, poured cold water over ourselves. After such a procedure, vigor appears throughout the body.

If we wish, we can walk up the stairs, instead of taking the elevator, it takes a couple of minutes longer, but the body will never become flabby. Moreover, you can meet local smokers and talk to them about healthy lifestyles.

Also, getting together in the evening with the whole family, in order to usefully spend time, you can make it interesting for everyone. Some of the children are interested in English, read God’s Word in English, and translate it. Some of the children so far do not perceive anything except fairy tales, find fundamental fairy tales or books on fairy tale therapy on the Internet and study them with the children. Someone likes to draw, buy a children’s Bible with pictures for coloring, read the story, and then paint the pictures with the child.

Also on the subway, you can write a diary and analyze your life. When brushing your teeth, you can stand up on your toes and train your ankle, saving yourself from dislocated foot forever. When you are on the phone or reading a book instead of sitting or lying down, you can walk around the room and meet your daily step goals (which should be at least 10,000).

God has endowed us with creativity, and we can use it to find loopholes in our daily life, and in a terribly busy schedule, to connect with the spiritual and divine, although sometimes we need to sit down and clear all our priorities.

Quotes:

“There is only one problem – the only one in the world – to return to people spiritual content, spiritual concerns …”Antoine de Saint-Exupery

“In order for one person to want to help another, he must mature spiritually. A very wise man once said to me: the property of a person is to take, the property of God is to give. But the higher a person is in his spiritual development, the closer he is to God, the less he takes and the more he gives. If a person is tuned in only to how he should take, he naturally will not think about others who need your help or who need your presence. And the higher a person is in his spiritual development, the more he wants to help others. “Boris Grebenshchikov

“In this dark world, consider only spiritual wealth as true, for it will never be depreciated.”Omar Khayyam

My Rendezvous With Life

My Rendezvous With Life

The treacherous waters of existence hail in their stride,As the beauty of sailing against the winds uproars in its ride.Benevolence in its yonder stirs the mirth of the true,Navigating the turbulent waves, death and I had a rendezvous.

I sought the beauty of the light that was unseen,In the depths of my muse, I found my world within.Life in its flair, trudged me into the emblems of the dark,The dreams that perspired in the seed embraced their death,As it was time for a new quest to embark.

Quaint whispers that echoed in their gallant stance,The jeers that surmounted the uncertainty galloped in their dance.Silencing the wind, bestriding the fall,I plunged into the entirety of my endeavours that call

For I chose to befriend the walk that marked the

The Power of Understanding Your Love Language

The Power of Understanding Your Love Language

Love is the purest emotion one feels towards themselves and another individual. While the expression of love can vary in its entirety from one person to another, the care we hold for the ones we love shares an undeniable impact on how we forge our perceptions of interpersonal relationships. The way we communicate our feelings to someone also says a lot about how we are wired, the method of conveying our affection to our beloved ones is called a love language. You may express affection to the one you love regularly, but do you take the time to ensure that you are communicating it in the way that the other person prefers? Even love can become lost in translation when two individuals speak different love languages.

What are the five love languages?

The Beauty Of Gratitude In A World Full Of Cynicism

Ever acquainted with the phrase that the world that you exist in, the life that you embody dwells in the perception of the stance you hold for yourself. The beauty and the tragedy of life is that it is as beautiful as the optimistic lens of perception and as ugly as the pessimistic view of your being.

The strive of our endeavours and the constant effort to achieve the next massive milestone often drive us to the edges of insanity, to be in the consistent light of greatness we lose sight of the great strings of joy that bind our existence together. To be the best we have ever been we must be mindful of the best we are. Coinciding in the traps of negativity and yet claiming to be the best version of yourself is a blinding truth that lies to only

I Breathe In The Sauntering Air That Collapses My Being

I Breathe In The Sauntering Air That Collapses My Being

I breathe in the sauntering air that collapses my being,I breathe through the crevices of my existence unseen.Uncertainty in its yonder strikes in bolt on the scars that nobody sees,Redemption that loves, redemption that is free, find me in the depths of my poetry.

Tales of lust ridden in smeared touches that belie,Entreated with envy, the visions of victory lie.To be or not to be in a question that yet lies,For I yearn for a world where fond passion never dies.

Enclasped in the cage of the deemed duty,Bounded in her vows, she forgot she was a thing of beauty.In a realm we live, where amour in its truth fails to stand tall,She, tired of her existence, submerges herself into the beauty that her dreams enthrall.

Chaos in its uproar hails in its darkness

Childhood Impact: As a child, I felt like no one accepted me for who I was.
