Do I Need to Have a Spiritual Awakening to Grow? (ep. 8)

In this episode of the Grounded in Love podcast, hosts Erin and Garrett Imeson discuss the concept of spiritual awakenings, the idea of living in the present moment, and related topics. They explore how spiritual awakenings are not something one can force but rather something that happens naturally. The conversation covers Eckhart Tolle's perspective on awakening, the distinction between the horizontal and vertical dimensions of existence, and how meditation helps in suspending thought to live more in the present. The hosts also touch upon the challenges of integrating a spiritual awakening into daily life and the societal pressures that complicate this process. Personal anecdotes and experiences enrich the discussion, making it relatable and insightful for listeners interested in conscious living and personal growth.
