Starting The Journey

(See: The Spiritual Wanderer's Journey Overview)

Beginning the spiritual wanderer's journey can feel a little intimidating or confusing at times. Where do we start? What path do we follow? What comes next? These are all normal concerns and questions.

What’s crucial to remember is that you are allowed to go at your own pace. Let Life lead you to where you need to go next (just as it has led you here). And trust your instincts!

The way we see it, there are two aspects to the spiritual wanderer's journey, the first being the practice of working with the inner psychology and the second being the path of opening and surrendering to the Divine.

Working with the psychological aspect is what we refer to as inner work and it involves exploring your inner self and dissolving the blockages that obscure your Inner Light. This "Starting the Journey" section explores many inner work practices.

Opening and surrendering to the Divine is the second aspect of the spiritual wanderer's journey, which we refer to as soul work, which you'll find that we deal with more in the Illumination, Traps & Pitfalls, Rebirth, and Integration categories (however, both inner work and soul work practices are typically incorporated throughout all categories of our work – you can refer back to the categories or portals on our main page).

Below, you’ll find some key places to begin and other enlightening resources that will help you journey inward.
