Lightbulb Moment -Why Goal Setting Your Spiritual Growth is Harming You

31/10/2020 by Glenys

This blog is for you…if you crave or desire to become the best you can be in All areas of your life…including your spirituality, yet are unsure how to proceed

or

have explored some spiritual growth techniques in the past that have left you feeling out of sorts, unwell or fearful or unsupported.

Which leads me onto the topic for my blog this month. I have been inspired to write this cheat sheet for you by Archangel Michael, in order to empower your spiritual journey and help you avoid unforeseen pitfalls.

Cheat Sheet- Spiritual Growth Guidelines 101

Mental Logic versus Soul Urge

Our logical mind loves to goal set and supports this useful mental technique, enabling us to

  • provide direction in our lives
  • fulfil a sense of achievement
  • convert our dreams into reality
  • feel empowered
  • provide framework and structure
  • meet timelines and deadlines
  • feel safe

If you are seeing successes in your life due to your ability to goal set, then it should be easy to apply these same techniques and achieve success with your spiritual growth – right?

Well, yes and no…let me explain.

Firstly though, let us look at the qualities of the Soul Urge as this may shed some light on my explanation.

The soul urge

  • Provides an inner desire to fulfil a mission connected to a personal legacy
  • Craves expansion and/or freedom
  • Needs to feel a sense of accomplishment (correct a wrong, support someone special or overcome personal limitations…)
  • Desires inner peace, a sense of balance, a loving feeling of ‘home’ within

The underlined soul urges above automatically trigger our ‘need to goal set and achieve’ mentality.

So, what is the difference?

  • Mental Logic includes expectations and control into the goal setting formula. It drives the mental, emotional or physical process to achieve moving from point A to point B.
  • Soul Urge formula relies on vibration. The vibration needs to flow and remain compatible with the vibration of the physical body as it shifts through levels.

Why is this harmful?

If your soul vibration is nudged or forced quickly into another vibrational level before your physical body can adjust- physical, mental, emotional and spiritual issues can, and do arise.

Vibrational integration between your physical and spiritual bodies is important.

Therefore, it is wise to consider the following when embarking on any spiritual development or learning.

  • Research any information thoroughly before diving blindly in, especially if it is online. Make sure it is from a credible source.
  • Referrals and recommendations from others ensure quality information is being taught or given.
  • Do not be afraid to ask questions if you desire more clarity in a particular topic from the tutor concerned. If they are experienced in their field, they should have no issues in answering any queries you may have.
  • It is wise to allow a period of integration time between any spiritual courses you learn from. For some of you that are experienced, we may be talking days between taking on new knowledge as you are used to vibrational movement. If you are new to spiritual learning, then you may require anywhere between a week to a month. Vibrational integration is essential. If you allow your mind to goal set you through your growth without these ‘pauses’ of integration, you may experience.
  • It takes time to become comfortable with spiritual learning, as this requires right brain or a creative approach to be effective. If you are already a creative, then you may see faster results.
  • Feeling supported before, during or after your spiritual learning may be a requirement of yours. If it is, see if that option is available to you.

Most importantly, enjoy the process!

Remember, Vibrational Alignment is Key…

Allow your Logical Mind to do the research and your soul urge to feel safe exploring and expanding as a result.

✨Celebrate Your Luster ✨ Pearls …the symbol of wi ✨Celebrate Your Luster ✨

Pearls …the symbol of wisdom, purity and healing.

They are as unique as you are, each one displaying a range of textures, sheen, and colour palettes.

We celebrate the luster we see and often forget they were birthed through irritation. 
Yet this process defined their uniqueness, gave them colour and defined them as precious.

Like the pearl, we too encounter irritation in life and it molds us into who we are. It’s a reminder that beauty can evolve from irritation and with this, defines our uniqueness.

Therefore, celebrate the growth you receive through your irritations in life. Allow yourself to celebrate your luster and your uniqueness rather than remain small and hidden.

You are a light infused pearl in the making and you are beautiful 💛

✨Personal Update✨ The last month or so has been f ✨Personal Update✨

The last month or so has been filled with a series of personal events that encouraged me to take an unplanned reprieve from social media.

A beloved family member transitioned to the light, closely followed by a business trip to Australia and on my return, a two week bed stay because of the flu.

It has been a rollercoaster of mental, emotional and physical shifts until very recently and I’m happy to say I’m finally through to the other side.

On a positive note, whenever these experiences occur, my spiritual side experiences a rapid form of upgrading and the new information that flows is very profound and exciting.

I wanted to pop in and express my gratitude to everyone for your support, patience and prayers during this time. You know who you are ☺️

It is lovely to enjoy the sunshine once more ☀️

I first of all wanted to say…. 

‘Happy New Year’ 💛

My holiday time was restful, restorative and creative. I cannot remember the last time I can say that, it was wonderful.

We hosted Christmas in 2025 and our home was filled with laughter, cooking and extended family. Special memories were made.

These memories become especially precious when one of these family members is called home to spirit, and this was the case for one of ours.

We celebrate his life yet grieve his passing. We currently ride the ocean of emotion with its unpredictability. 

Thankyou for your patience with me during this time and my erratic posting on social media. I’m getting there …

My office is still open and I’m here for you if you would like a session. 

I wish you an amazing week ahead 💛💛😇
