How can I enhance my meditation practice?

Having a meditation practice tailored to your needs and characteristics can be quite powerful for your journey. There are so many meditation techniques available today that it is a matter of trying the one that suits you best. Enhancing the meditation practice does not mean meditating even more but incorporating the meditation state of awareness into other aspects of your life. Meditation practices are meant to build up your ability to be present and aware at every moment, not just during the time of your practice.

I am so impatient; how can I overcome this?

Impatience means being in a state of fear, which produces anxiety and a mind-ego-centered experience. Fear, in this case, is about the future and the outcome we think should happen and even think we know how and when it needs to happen. This fear extends to a root cause of this life experience: the unpredictability of anything beyond this present moment. The mind ego that needs so much security and control is in an ever-ongoing contention to surrender to the flow of life.

When you see that impatience is within you and realize that it comes from fear, from the need to control and know the unknown, it’s easier to experience the impatience but don’t react to it. This awareness naturally brings self-compassion or compassion to others as you remember that life always has a higher wisdom to every single situation and its outcome. Higher consciousness always has the best outcome that benefits every aspect of this creation.

What does it mean to be Spiritual?

Spirituality can be understood as a journey to uncover all the veils, ideas, beliefs, and habits that are blocking you from realizing the truth of who you are. It’s a journey that has no end since awakening to many aspects of this creation is endless.

For the mind, spirituality becomes a special trait to attain; it becomes a goal; it becomes a way to separate and label oneself and others, so many ideas, beliefs, and concepts arise in the mind with the idea of spirituality. In essence, for the mind, it becomes a divisive and separate experience.
When you become aware of your whole human experience, all the layers, all the personalities, all the things that live within you that are not your truth, spirituality becomes a piece of returning to your wholeness—the movement of remembering and living from the reality of your being.
