Let's get real for a moment. This year's been a wild ride - from loss to writing my memoir and my move to Tulum. Mexico has been a transformative chapter, pushing me to face my shadows and rediscover my core values.
Recently, I've taken a step back from the spiritual scene here. In my latest podcast episode, I'm diving into why.
There's this trend of spiritual ego and narcissism that's been bugging me, especially on social media. It's like some folks are trying to peddle instant transformation, and it just doesn't sit right with me.
And let's talk about the "prostitution" of spirituality - it's become a marketable commodity. It's disheartening to see the depth of this practice reduced to a transaction. And those cringe-worthy spiritual titles...everyone seems to be claiming shaman status. It's tough to figure out who's genuinely dedicated to this path and who's just riding the trend wave. It's time for a reality check, a deeper look into what it truly means to be a spiritual guide or practitioner.
In my latest episode, I'll be digging into these issues and sharing my experiences.
Join me in untangling the complexities of the spiritual landscape here in Tulum.
Discernment, integrity, and authenticity - they're the heart and soul of a genuine spiritual journey. It's about being rooted in love, service, and a commitment to truth.
To those who see themselves as spiritual guides, your dedication is truly admirable. Remember to frequently turn inward, reflecting on your intentions. It's crucial to stay vigilant, making sure your ego doesn't take over the wheel.
If you ever sense your ego starting to lead the way, don't hesitate to step back. Embrace that isolation, that ego-death process. It's a crucial part of your growth. Find your center, and reconnect with your higher purpose. It's in those moments of recalibration that we truly align with the essence of our spiritual path.
