Mindfulness or Spiritual Path - which one resonates?

As you look deeper inside yourself, you will soon realize that certain practices may resonate with you more strongly than others. Most of us start at one place and evolve over time to many other places. This is normal so if you are drawn to more mindfulness teachings and practices, walk the beauty of this path. And if the spiritual side of things speaks to you, then you should absolutely follow this path. 

Truth be told, they are interconnected.  

I always think of mindfulness as a core foundation because it teaches us so much about living in just this moment. It gives you a hard glimpse into the human mind and opens you up to understanding that you are not your thoughts. It also teaches us how to reduce suffering in our lives and is deeply rooted in the understanding that you are, at your core, vast Awareness. Everyone can connect to this place inside, which is hard to describe (if vast Awareness didn't speak to you). This deeper connection to what/who you are provides a sense of spaciousness inside and in your life.

The Spiritual Path is equally enlightening.

Instead of focusing on being with thoughts and ego, you shift into the seat of that same Awareness, which is the Soul.

You move and function from the place of the Soul, having a human experience. All the hardships we encounter and the multitude of relationships in our lives are not accidents. They are providing the experience your Soul created. In the ups and downs, this life allows you opportunities to move towards greater Love and Compassion, the root of all existence.

Stepping into that is a practice because it doesn't always feel that way. The downs feel tough, and sometimes you wonder what good could come from these circumstances. Spiritual consciousness illuminates this Higher Perspective and evolves into a deep well of understanding and knowledge.
