Creating Spirituality

"...[the answer might be] starting a regular spiritual practice routine that can both enrich your spiritual awareness and strengthen your faith. This practice becomes your religion and in turn, an integral part of your life."

Exactly What I Want it to Be?
(31-second video)

"Remember that your spiritual practice is completely unique to you. It doesn’t need to look or sound or act like anyone else's. Make your spiritual practice exactly what you want and need for it to be." ~ Jenna Arak, The Girl Who Knows

About 7 or 8 years ago, I found out about a course offered at one of the local churches in my city. It was called “Create Your Own Theology.”

Though I didn’t take that class, years later, in our homeschooling, my son & I did a world religions unit & one of the suggestions was to create your own. I decided to do it, too, and came up with The Kindness Religion.

I loved the idea of making up the truth you want to believe!

And it reminded me of other things I have heard that suggest that we are dreaming life, and making it up as we go, so we can change the story if it’s not one we like. That feels empowering.

But whether or not you intend to dream up a theology, you certainly get the adventure of designing or choosing your spiritual practice. And if you want it to be a hygge one, you can certainly make it so. In fact, this month, I’ll tell you how.

Because this month’s focus is to learn what a hygge spirituality is or what a hygge spiritual practice would be like. And I’ll also share how to try it yourself if you’re interested.

But before we get to that, there's more to think through about spirituality & spiritual practice.

Plus, there's an exercise I’d like you to try. Once you try it, you'll be able to keep it in mind as  we continue the conversation on hygge spiritual practices.

See you tomorrow!

Love, Jeanine
