Top 5 Things a Spiritual Coach Can Do for You

You have embarked on a journey to seek answers but you are not even sure what questions to ask. All you know is that you are in search of a connection to something much bigger than yourself. Your quest for answers may have led to a desire for a deeper understanding of yourself.

Curiosity is often the catalyst to the beginning of your spiritual journey and the desire for spiritual knowledge will often lead you to a spiritual coach.

If you are here, you are probably wondering what exactly it is a spiritual coach does. How do they operate? How can they help you? Why do you need a spiritual coach at all?

In the following paragraphs, I explain some of the major benefits of engaging with a spiritual coach and how a spiritual coach can be a key part of your spiritual journey.

A Spiritual Coach is fundamentally a niche type of life coach.

Essentially, a spiritual coach uses specialised systems and probing questioning, along with unique tools not used in any other life coaching disciplines to extract as much information from your unconscious mind to paint a more accurate picture of your true self. Once this information is drawn out, it can be used to effectively understand why you do what you do, learn how to tackle issues such as deep-rooted limiting beliefs, and use this information as a roadmap to grow yourself spiritually.

Spiritual coaches use their specialised skill set to bring clarity and a fresh perspective on familiar experiences with a priority on authenticity that is not often found in other life coaching disciplines.

Here are 5 benefits a spiritual coach can help you.

1. Peace
   

   Peace is perhaps the most sought-after life goal for most people, particularly those with an introspective nature. But for there to be peace in your external environment, it needs to first come from within. A spiritual coach’s whole methodology revolves around helping you find inner peace as this is one of the fundamental purposes of starting your spiritual journey.“We can never make peace in the outer world until we make peace within ourselves” Dalai Lama

   A spiritual coach can help you find inner peace but for that, you must first open yourself up to your potential for love and harmony. Once you have embedded yourself in a place of inner peace you will become more intuitive and learn to trust your inner guide. To get to this place, however, will not be by accident. Like any other type of pursuit in life such as sport, business, or relationships, you will need a spiritual coach to get you to that place of peace.

2. The Path to Spiritual Success
   

   What is spiritual success? Can it be quantified? Are the goals and rewards the same for everyone?
   There is no correct answer to what spiritual success is because spirituality is such a personal and individual experience. However, it can be universally agreed that finding peace, developing integrity, having faith, self-love, and finding your purpose in life are common standards of spiritual success. A spiritual coach’s job is to guide you on your spiritual journey while making you aware of each of these successes as you achieve them. By making you aware of the small victories you accomplish along your journey, a spiritual coach can guide you to spiritual success. The goal is to achieve happiness and harmony between your mind, body, and spirit which is where the path to spiritual success ultimately leads.

3. Enabling, Facilitating, and Supporting You on Your Spiritual Journey
   

   Throughout our life, we have many teachers and guides who help form our understanding of the world. The first of these is our parents, then schoolteachers, friends, relatives, and so on. Some of the ideas we pick up along the way can enable us to live healthy, fulfilling lives while others can disable us to a point that makes obtaining peace and spirituality seem unattainable. A spiritual coach utilises their very specialised expertise and methodologies to facilitate a tailored program to help you find spiritual success on your spiritual journey. The path you take may sometimes seem unclear and present numerous roadblocks. A spiritual coach is there to support you along the way to help bring clarity and overcome the obstacles that can cause limiting beliefs on your way to enlightenment.

4. Heal
   

   Much like spiritual success, spiritual healing can mean something different to each person who looks for it. For Christians, healing comes from the teachings of God. For those who are spiritual but not religious, healing may come from an array of teachings from the metaphysical sciences. The word ‘spiritual’ comes from the Latin word ‘spiritus’ which has been used to describe breathing, air, soul, life.” Science is not only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality” Carl Sagan

   A metaphysical spiritual healer acts as a conduit for the intangible energy known as light or life force and channels it where you most need it. An example of this is the balancing of chakras. Chakras are your spiritual energy core and when they are not aligned, it can lead to the manifestation of negative feelings and physical illness. When a spiritual healer connects to your energy and recognises what needs to be healed, they can direct this energy to the areas that require healing, and use it to realign your chakras or whatever necessary healing needs to take place.

5. Bringing You Closer to Your True Self
   

   Over the course of our lives, we are told to conform to a systemic way of life that benefits society as a collective which can suppress our uniqueness and cause us to stray from our authentic selves. As spiritual beings, we are born to be different and unique. Our individuality is what separates us from each other and at the same time is also the piece in the jigsaw that links us together. So, when you begin your spiritual journey to find your true self, it really is a journey of self-discovery.

   There is no one blueprint to find oneself as discovering who you are spiritually is as unique a process as you are unique as a person. Breaking away from the collective mindset can be a daunting task as the desire to belong to a group has been deeply entrenched in our biology since the beginning of our conscious being. The benefit of having a spiritual coach to guide you through this process helps to free you from the restrictive shackles of group conformity and a fixed mindset. Once a spiritual coach helps you find your true, authentic self you will feel that your previous self was just a case of mistaken identity.

In summary, think of your spiritual coach as your personal tour guide on your spiritual journey. Like discovering a new and foreign place, a good tour guide can steer you towards the best attractions, the finest cuisine, and exclusive locations making your travels feel uniquely special and memorable. Likewise, a spiritual coach is your guide that connects you to the universe where you can experience only the best that life has to offer. Compassionately guiding you to a place where you can heal, find peace, achieve spiritual success and finally, find your true self.
