What slows down our Spiritual Awakening?
Positivity has flown out the window, the bliss that you used to experience has been reduced significantly, lower conscious ideals and mindfulness has been replaced with overthinking patterns. You simply can't make the connection that you once felt and it seems impossible to return to that level of light, love and awareness that you seek. The connection of self to the supreme self also known as God has been lower down again and you are grabbed down in the stage of questioning.
Many things can slow down our spiritual awakening, each acting like a roadblock on our journey of inner awareness. Here are some key factors to consider:
- Fear and Resistance: Fear of the unknown, of change, or of losing control can lead us to resist opening ourselves to deeper truths. We might cling to familiar, comfortable patterns, even if they don't truly serve us.
- Ego and Attachment: Clinging to our ego, our sense of self and identity, can limit our spiritual growth. Attachment to worldly desires, possessions, and relationships can also distract us from our inner journey.
- Judgement and Criticism: Judging ourselves and others for our past mistakes or perceived flaws can create negative energy and block spiritual progress. Self-acceptance and compassion are crucial steps on the path.
- Laziness and Procrastination: Spiritual growth requires effort and dedication. Putting off practices like meditation, reflection, or connecting with nature can slow down our awakening.
- Unrealistic Expectations: The spiritual journey is not linear or predictable. Expecting quick results or dramatic transformations can lead to disappointment and discouragement. Trusting the process and appreciating the gradual unfolding is key.

- Alan Francis says That The biggest reason by far way we use to slow down our “healing” or spiritual development is staying away from the present moment. It’s painful. In fact many of our roles are doing this automatically. We avoid the present moment like the plague.
This is the core reason. All our problems really stem from this. Look at your life and you will see this avoidance everywhere. We don’t like silence, we don’t like boredom, we have to distract ourselves.
External Obstacles:
- Distractions and Busyness: In our fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in distractions and external demands. Prioritizing time for introspection and spiritual practices is crucial.
- Misinformation and Doubt: Negative influences through media, societal expectations, or even well-meaning but misguided advice can create confusion and doubt about our own spiritual experiences. Be discerning and find trusted sources of guidance.
- Toxic Relationships: Surrounding ourselves with people who are dismissive, negative, or unsupportive of our spiritual journey can create unnecessary obstacles. Setting healthy boundaries and finding a supportive community is essential.
- Unfavorable Life Events: Difficult times like illness, loss, or hardship can challenge our faith and make it harder to connect with our inner peace. However, even these experiences can offer opportunities for deeper learning and spiritual growth.
Remember:
The spiritual awakening is a personal journey, unique to each individual. There is no single path or guaranteed timeline. The key is to be patient, persistent, and kind to yourself. Embrace the challenges as opportunities for growth, practice self-compassion, and stay attuned to your inner guidance. By diligently attending to the obstacles, both within and without, you can remove the roadblocks and move closer to your spiritual awakening.
Here are some additional tips to support your spiritual growth:
- Engage in regular spiritual practices: Meditation, prayer, reflection, spending time in nature, and connecting with sacred texts can all help you deepen your connection to your inner self.
- Seek guidance from spiritual teachers or mentors: Connecting with a wise and experienced guide can provide valuable support and insights on your journey.
- Create a supportive community: Surround yourself with people who encourage and inspire you on your spiritual path.
- Trust your intuition: Develop your inner knowing and learn to listen to your intuitive guidance.
- Practice self-care: Nurturing your physical, mental, and emotional well-being is essential for a balanced spiritual journey.
By taking these steps and embracing the challenges as opportunities for learning, you can continue to advance on your unique path to spiritual awakening.
Conclusions
Misunderstanding that the challenging and unpleasant things that occur in your life are for you and not against you. When you wish a difficult or unpleasant experience away it means you are not open to learning from it. The experience is there to serve you, to help you grow on your journey. It is like someone running after you with a gorgeous gift to give you and you are running away like your life depends on it.
