Guide Me Newsletter - How can I Reclaim my Spiritual Self?
Dear Friend,
Welcome to the third and last special February issue with the topic of "Relationships". I hope you have enjoyed the three part special series revolving around "Relationships"! Next month I will be answering your questions about career guidance and living your purpose.
I also have a special announcement! Up until yesterday, the Guidance Cards program was only available as a single card session or six card module. The Guidance Cards program is now available as a full, comprehensive 32 card program! That means, when you purchase the 32 card program, you will have all five modules ('Relationships', 'Communication', 'Transition', 'Healing', and 'Overcoming Blocks') available! This groundbreaking program also includes audio-guided coaching sessions, printable journaling entries, meaning and affirmations for each card. Check it out at www.GuidanceCards.com/order!
As always, to create a dialog, I invite you to send me your real questions you're stuck on! I will provide a Guidance Card and coaching tip on your question by sharing them in this newsletter (on a first come, first serve basis). It's an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding on many personal topics. Most likely, at some point we all come across similar questions and thus will appreciate exploring these questions for personal growth. I hope you enjoy this month's issue. And keep emailing your Guidance questions to karin@guidancecards.com
If you can't see the graphics or Guidance Card image in this newsletter, please go to the newsletter archives in my website, where you'll be able to see this month's issue and previous issues at http://www.guidancecards.com/Newsletter/Index.php
Wishing you joy,

This month's topic:
'Relationships'
Reader’s Guidance Question of the month:
"I've been married to my spouse for many years. We share a pretty good relationship. However, I feel like over the years I've lost myself somewhat. My life has centered around my spouse and the family. I no longer do the things I used to enjoy and I forgot what those things were. I really want to reconnect with myself again. I don't mean spiritual in a "religious" sense. I guess what I'm looking for is just to feel connected somehow, rekindle my passion for life."
Guidance Coach Karin’s Answer:
I'm so glad you asked this question, thank you. Let’s examine this question more closely with a Guidance Card.
There are several Guidance Cards that would be helpful in exploring this question. I’ve chosen the card titled "Divine Spirit Connection" for your question. Here's the Guidance Card:
Why use the "Divine Spirit Connection" card? Looking at this image, you may notice two faces, one looking up and one looking down. You may also notice the spiritual colors of yellow, gold, and blue. In the middle of the image appears a burst of light, could be rays of energy or sunshine. In a larger version of this card available at GuidanceCards.com, you will be able to view this image and see the colors a lot more clearly. This image is symbolic for spiritual connection.
Many people devote their lives to others. Hats off to all the wonderful parents, devoted spouses, (and caring caregivers in the helping profession)! There is no job as important as the job of looking after your family. Sadly, being a committed, devoted spouse and parent doesn't always get the praise and appreciation that is due.
However, staying connected with your own inner being, your needs, desires and joyful activities that leave you feeling "full and happy" is very important. To be able to keep giving to others, you need to keep your own cup of needs full. Connecting with yourself spiritually is possible through engaging in various activities or hobbies that allow you to feel truly in touch with yourself. Being in touch with yourself will often result in a feeling of joy or spiritual connection. It's really about having a good and happy relationship with yourself.
If you have lost the activities you've once enjoyed, here are some suggestions to start up again:
- Make a list of the things you used to enjoy when you were a child
- Go on a retreat to take time out and reconnect with yourself
- Go on a trip by yourself and explore a new area
- Take night classes or weekend workshops on topics that have always interested you
- Engage in activities like walks in nature, meditation, yoga, journaling, Guidance Cards and affirmations
Anything that will bring you closer to yourself, will also enhance your relationships with others. Thus, feeling spiritually connected will give you a chance to also find a divine spirit connection with the ones you love.
The affirmation on the Divine Spirit Connection card reads:
Feel the lightness of being.
Bathe in the golden light of spirit.
Invite your guide to communicate.
Inner Guidance Question:
What new possibilities inspire you to connect with spirit?
(Repeat this affirmation three times)
Guidance Coach's Tip of the month:
So, how can you reclaim your spiritual self? Stay light, invite yourself on a spiritual journey, and reconnect with what gives you joy. Being spiritual does not necessarily mean a regimented routine of activities. Being able to feel alive, be joyful and feel happiness with your life and yourself is a divine gift. Allow it to come in and embrace the love you feel in your heart.
