What Spirituality Means To Me

Published on 1 February 2026 at 20:12


To me, being spiritual is not about escaping life — it’s about arriving more fully within it.

It isn’t about having all the answers, following one belief system, or always feeling light and peaceful. My spirituality lives in the quiet moments. In listening to my body. In honoring emotions as messengers rather than obstacles. In trusting that wisdom moves through us, even when things feel uncertain.

Being spiritual means slowing down enough to truly feel.

For much of my life, I was sensitive to things I couldn’t explain — the energy in rooms, emotions that lingered in my body, and a quiet inner knowing that spoke softly but persistently. I didn’t always understand it, and at times I tried to silence it. But the more I ignored it, the louder my body and spirit asked for my attention.

Over time, I learned that spirituality isn’t something we add to ourselves. It’s something we remember beneath everything we’ve learned to carry.

For me, spirituality is deeply grounded. It lives in the body as much as it does in the soul. It’s found in breath, presence, and compassion. It shows up when I choose gentleness over force, honesty over avoidance, and rest over pushing past my limits.

Being spiritual also means allowing myself to be human.

I don’t believe healing requires perfection or constant positivity. I believe it requires safety. It requires compassion. It requires the courage to sit with what is, without judgment. Some of the most spiritual moments in my life have come through grief, discomfort, and deep inner listening — not because they were easy, but because they were honest.

Spirituality, for me, is a relationship. A relationship with my inner world. With energy. With something greater that moves through all living things. It’s not about control — it’s about trust. Trusting timing. Trusting intuition. Trusting that healing unfolds in layers, exactly as it needs to.

This understanding is what led me to energy work and to Reiki®. The compassion-centered nature of this practice reflects how I view spirituality itself — not as something that fixes or forces change, but as something that supports, softens, and gently restores balance at the soul level.

Through Sacred Innergy, I hold space for healing that honors the whole being — body, heart, and spirit. A space where you don’t need to be anything other than what you already are. A space where healing is not rushed and your inner wisdom is always respected.

If this perspective resonates with you, trust that. You don’t need to fully understand why you feel drawn — only to listen. When you feel ready, I would be honored to support you through compassionate, soul-led energy healing.

There is nothing you need to become.
There is only what you are remembering.
