The images of spirituality depict things like meditation, yoga poses, crystals, goddessy women, sage and namaste. They portray a sexy, sparkly, zen vibe and we have an idea of what a “spiritual person” looks and acts like. People often think they are signing up for rainbows and unicorns, they are hooked by the IG glamour or the shiny bits. However, the truth is a real spiritual path is really none of those things.

Joy is a wellspring. If we are tapped into it, it is renewing and inspiring But joy can often feel out of reach and evasive. What is the source of joy? How can we cultivate more of it? Where does it come from?

Just like we keep our environments, clothing and our bodies clean for health and sanitary purposes, there are also practices to protect and clear our aura and energy bodies.

The spiritual path is ultimately one of connecting to and remembering who we truly are.

This involves two primary actions: connecting to the true self, and clearing away all that is not true.
