By Stephanie Anderson


A strong believer will sometimes feel weak at a point in his or her life. This plateau moment calls for a spiritual awakening. The exercises are meant to awaken passion to pursue deeper spirituality so that the believer can enjoy the fruits of full or strong spirituality. The following practical steps will aid in reigniting a strong spirit and transforming your life.

Drop what is unnecessary in your life. This could be people, things or habits. Believers carry a lot of stuff that makes their lives cluttered. There were habits and people who were with you during formative years. Other habits will only drain you emotionally and physically. Endeavor to begin a new journey lighter and will unnecessary baggage.

Evaluate your belief system to see whether it is practical and effective. There are aspects of faith that could be causing your spirit to die or get cold. Lay bare what you believe and see whether it makes sense. If a belief is not making sense or adding value to your life, drop it. Pick up new ideas that enhance your spirituality.

Explore new spiritual ideas. This is not an invitation to abandon that which you believe today. The exploration comes in the form of reading new books and talking to people who will breathe new life into your spirituality. Expand your circle and you will discover the level of hunger that exists. You realize that you have been living a very enclosed life.

Find appropriate outdoor space for your reflection. There is magic in nature if it is used well to for spiritual reflections. Go for a retreat by the river bed or at a beautiful park. Take a long drive or go to the mountains. Such excursions will help you connect with nature and with your inner self.

Give your body a tender touch. The body houses the spirit and will therefore determine how well that spirit will be. A weak and sickly body will also affect your spirit. It stalls and does not pursue higher goals. When the body is flexible, you are open to ideas that will transform your life. If the body becomes weak and sickly, it lacks the strength to pursue transformation to the end.

Learn to release that which is no longer necessary in your life. It is difficult to drop something, a friend or a habit that you have been engaged in for years. This means that you have to stop watching certain programs, visiting certain areas or keeping company. It will take a lot of grace, courage and determination to accept this change. It opens the way for a new path in life.

Find a mentor to guide you through the process. There are activities and actions that could be enticing yet they do not lead you in the right direction. A mentor will direct you from experience and revelation. This should be a leader who has served for years and therefore understands the right direction to take. You must prepare to be a new being and drop your old ways. It will take a while to get comfortable with your new self.
