Spiritual Support in Midlife – Tapping into Soul WIsdom

Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about the soul and how different it is from mind. I’ve spent so many years studying how the mind works and how we can ‘control’ or not control the mind.

Spiritual Counselor reflects on Soul Purpose in Midlife

I discovered (well, I knew it before but it got clearer yesterday) that I often believe what other people say to me more than I trust my own guts and ideas. Why is that so? I haven’t fully explored that yet – I’ll keep you posted. But, I remember a time in high school when I got in trouble for something and my mom was angry at the teacher and I said – “she must be right!” Whew… I was already doubting my own knowing. I had done nothing wrong. Seriously.

It’s one of those midlife musings again to see the balance between getting help and acknowledging that you have all the answers within you. I’m beginning to see that the reason to go to a coach or counselor is to help get clear on what I already know. I often find myself saying, “No, that’s not it.” and that response is as valuable as the one that says, “right on!”

I invite you to ponder how often you go outside yourself to find answers that you already know. Do you know the difference. Let me hear from you. (It will help me clarify my own wisdom….)
