Benefits of Daily Spiritual Practices
It’s important to understand that when invited into your everyday life, Spirituality can bring many positive benefits to your health and well-being.
Daily spiritual practices, no matter how small, can bring you comfort, help create better lifestyle habits, and set positive intentions for each day.
People who incorporate spirituality into their lives are more likely to report high levels of satisfaction with their lives, fewer physical illnesses, and stronger relationships than those who do not.
Spirituality provides a source of comfort, guidance and support during difficult times.
Research shows that daily spiritual practices provide a sense of meaning and purpose in life, help people cope with stress, and increase feelings of happiness and well-being.
Additionally, engaging with daily spiritual practices has been shown to reduce rates of substance abuse, depression, and suicide.
It can be especially helpful in times of emotional stress or illness because it gives us something to focus on other than the emotional, mental pain of what we're going through. Obviously, we’re not talking about avoidance … which is another topic for another time.
Spiritual practices can provide an outlet for emotions and help people feel connected to something larger than themselves.
For others, it is a source of motivation and inspiration.
Spirituality can introduce a new way of thinking and reasoning in our lives. In addition, spirituality can help people learn more about themselves.
We’re able to develop compassion and empathy and strengthen our intuition, inner wisdom.
Spirituality plays a significant role in the social lives of many people. It can help connect people with their own personal values and can inspire them to share those values with others. And to seek out others who also share those values.
It can also provide a sense of community and support – especially for people who are struggling.
Even businesspeople are recognizing the importance of simple, daily spiritual practices. Many entrepreneurs realize that when you have a strong spiritual practice, you can bypass what the brain says is logical and acceptable and create extraordinary impact and income in far smaller amounts of time. Some even say that daily spiritual practices provide the holistic support necessary to show up and work in ways that feel meaningful - rather than fueling productivity addiction and depletion.
