    Surrendering – A "Taboo" Word?

    Welcome back to Season 1 Episode 6, Surrendering – A Taboo Word. Surrender is a spiritual concept. But it is not just a concept, it is also an approach to life. With our current culture and conditioning, surrender can be difficult. In this episode I will discuss: What I have learned about surrender How often we need to surrender How resistance and surrender are our pathway to healing How contrast (things that are difficult) help us to grow Why it is good to stop fighting, surrender and let go How surrendering and letting go allow you to access the most powerful source of all How our conditioned images of God mess with our ability to let go and let God What a previous presidential candidate reveals as your real purpose on earth What we need to surrender How to receive the very best for yourself Link for scene from Coach Carter Movie. Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate but that we are powerful beyond measure ~ Marianne Williamson https://youtu.be/Ybt8wXIahQU A bit about me… This podcast evolved out of my purpose. My purpose evolved out of my early struggles. I turned that purpose into my mission. I struggled with myself and who I thought I should be versus who I was truly deep down. Family challenges amplified my struggle. That pain led to worse pain and circumstances until I was broken open to my awakening and with help and support developed self-efficacy and a belief in the divine. In other words, I came to believe in my own ability to meet life’s challenges (and listen to my inner voice) while having faith that things would work out okay. I might add, that none of this has been done or is being done perfectly. That awakening led me back to school and to work in helping professions over the past 30 years including, addictions and mental health, as a career counsellor and facilitator, as a college teacher, as an executive director in youth services, back to addictions again and as a Life and Career Coach. Staying in alignment with myself and my truth is a lifelong journey in which “life” provides reminders when I am getting off track that get stronger the longer, I do not listen. What it really means is that I sometimes forget who I truly am, get out of tune with myself and do not treat myself as the divine being I know myself to be. I believe that this is part of our collective human condition. Thank you for joining me. To me there is nothing better than this journey of remembering and reminding ourselves of who we truly are. Until next time.  Peace, love & joy to you! Lorie

    Introduction - Welcome to the Spiritually Aligned Living Podcast

    Hi, Welcome to the Spiritually Aligned Living Podcast. This podcast has been created from a desire to live my purpose and my mission: To discover and live my truth and support others to do the same. This podcast is about how we navigate and integrate living as humans who are also spiritual.   Or is it spiritual beings having a human experience? More to explore around that question. The main focus will be on what is called practical spirituality which is grounded in reality (or at least our own version of reality). But we will venture, at times, into some topics which are seen as more esoteric in nature. But, the main goal of the podcast is: How do we live in this world with all of its challenges and still be true to ourselves? To do so means that we need to be or become consciously aware of who we truly are and tune into that and really listen, without getting distracted by the chaos of the world. I believe we are all works in progress. Since I was 21 years old, I have had a passion of spirituality and personal growth.  Yet, my truth is not your truth. My insights and hard won wisdom may or may not be a jumping off point for you. Where you go from there is up to you. I will cover a variety of topics related to spirituality and personal growth and some will resonate more strongly with with you. Listen to your own inner voice as to which topics deserve more time and attention. A bit about me… This podcast evolved out of my purpose. My purpose evolved out of my early struggles. I turned that purpose into my mission. I struggled with myself and who I thought I should be versus who I was truly deep down. Family challenges amplified my struggle. That pain led to worse pain and circumstances until I was broken open to my awakening and with help and support developed self-efficacy and a belief in the divine. In other words, I came to believe in my own ability to meet life’s challenges (and listen to my inner voice) while having faith that things would work out okay. I might add, that none of this has been done or is being done perfectly. That awakening led me back to school and to work in helping professions over the past 30 years including, addictions and mental health, as a career counsellor and facilitator, as a college teacher, as an executive director in youth services, back to addictions again and as a Life and Career Coach. Staying in alignment with myself and my truth is a lifelong journey in which “life” provides reminders when I am getting off track that get stronger the longer, I do not listen. What it really means is that I sometimes forget who I truly am, get out of tune with myself and do not treat myself as the divine being I know myself to be.
