Episode 12: Spiritual Solutions for Overcoming Self-Doubt and Jealousy in Your Spiritual Practice

In this episode of "Ask Colleen Spiritual Solutions for Life Situations," Colleen St. Michaels addresses the common struggle of feeling insecure, envious, and self-doubting as a new spiritual practitioner. She emphasizes the importance of recognizing that no one is your competition and that jealousy stems from personal insecurities. Colleen advises practitioners to do inner shadow work, acknowledge their feelings, and release them. She also encourages practitioners to focus on doing work that brings them joy and fulfillment. By blessing others' success, practitioners can attract abundance into their own lives.

Key Takeaways:

• No one is your competition: Recognize that no one else's success diminishes your own. By viewing others as competition, you are giving away your power and limiting your own potential.

• Addressing jealousy and envy: Take the time to do an inner audit and explore the root causes of these emotions. Write out your experiences of jealousy and envy without judgment, allowing yourself to release these feelings.

• Stay in your lane: Focus on doing the work that brings you joy and fulfillment. Avoid comparing yourself to others and instead celebrate their successes while staying true to your own path.

• Bless your competitors: Instead of harboring negative feelings towards others in your field, send them blessings. By doing so, you are also inviting blessings into your own life.

• Do the inner work: Recognize that feelings of insecurity and self-doubt are normal, but they can be addressed through shadow work and self-reflection. Take the time to understand and heal these aspects of yourself.
