Spiritual Ways To Self-Improvement - E-book - ePub

You can use spiritual practices to purify, strengthen, and elevate your body, mind, and spirit. All three are connected. For example, your practices to purify and strengthen your body also support the increased flows of energy that come from your mental and spirit-based practices. Practices for your body: These practices include yoga postures, breathing exercises, and energy balancing - all for the purpose of making your "temple of God" (that is, your body) a worthy vessel to contain and carry the great energy of Holy Spirit.
Practices for your mind: These practices include meditation, contemplation, repetition of mantras, study of spiritual teachings, and affirmations - all of which polish the mirror of your mind so it can reflect divine light more clearly and brightly. Practices for your spirit: These practices include reverential rituals, prayer, chanting and singing of hymns, and other devotional efforts that invigorate your love, willpower, surrender, and faith.
