Excerpt from "Spiritual Medicine: 7 Spiritual Potions to Heal Your Life"

Simplify your life. Let go of attachments to things - having a bigger house, a better car, nicer vacations, more clothes, more make-up, more money. It is not that any of these things are bad, it is just that for many people these have become the goal of their lives - and this will only lead to unhappiness, frustration and sometimes destruction. The goals of life are love and happiness and a bigger house will not make you happy. It might make you happy for a few weeks, but then you will be back to being unhappy again and you’ll set about looking for something else that is bigger or better or acquiring more of what you already have. Rather than pursue that never-ending search which is virtually guaranteed to never satisfy you, it is better to focus on getting what you really truly are looking for - spiritual happiness and peace.

You live in a world where it now is high time to find spiritual happiness and peace. But, you cannot have everyone going up to the mountains, living in a cave, abstaining from sex and relationships. If everyone did that the world would collapse. Instead, it is now time to learn to bring spiritual energy, spiritual awareness and wisdom into your life. You do this by letting go of any unhealthy attachments that you have to ‘stuff’ - things that have no spiritual value, such as possessions, but also attachments to people or places, that are preventing you from being happy and finding peace.

People are often distracted by the stresses and the madness in their lives, what others have said, what they have done, the bills coming in, how to provide for their children, fears and anxiety about what will happen and what will not happen.

You know that the past cannot hurt you except in your mind.

So simplify your life. Begin to let go of the ‘stuff’ that feeds your chattering thoughts and causes you to be distracted from your Soul. You must at the same time stay present, be part of this world, and stay connected with your daily life, and in doing so you will bring your Soul’s energy into your life – as a provider, as a father, mother, spouse, friend, daughter or son. You are facing an enormous challenge –bringing spiritual awareness and wisdom into ordinary life, with all the distractions that ordinary life brings. Yet, this is what needs to happen for the world to heal. And you do this first by realising it in your own life. Then, the healing of others has a chance to take place by others being inspired by the change in you.
