The Heros Journey: How To Awaken Your Spirit

By Sandra Fisher


There are numerous ways you can boost your spirituality. The importance of the heros journey is not to be ignored since it has been shown that those who have stronger sense of spirituality are happier overall. But in these frantic times it can be easy to lose your sense of purpose in life and feel spiritually empty.

If you are a city dweller, chances are that you are overworked, overtired, and too stressed. This is becoming a chronic problem for society. The stress you endure can make you feel completely out of touch with who you are and what your life is about. If spirituality can be defined as having a life purpose and a sense of belonging in the world, it is arguable that many people are very out of touch with their spirituality. The great news is that you can do something about that. Retreats are the best way to get in touch with your soul again, and there are several out there for you to try.

Spirituality is often defined as feeling that life is greater than you are, and having purpose in life. For people involved in the creative arts, life is most meaningful when their creativity is at its optimum. Since artists often find it difficult to concentrate in the bustling noises of the city, they may choose retreats as a way of either breaking through a creative block, or to finish their masterpiece. Many creative retreats exist. The purpose of them is for you, the artist, to spend your day with like-minded people either drawing, writing, or painting the whole day. Then you receive constructive feedback about your work. After a two-to-four week stint in the tropics of Costa Rica, or the deserts of Arizona, many come back with renewed energy and belief in their purpose and ability as an artist. This is a spiritually uplifting point in the lives of many artists, both aspiring and accomplished.

There are those that feel most at peace when the are centered, taking care of their health and mental wellbeing, and living a healthy life. This is difficult to achieve in todays fast paced world. However, yoga retreats offer the perfect solution to this problem. These abound in places like India and Thailand and last up to three months. In this time, most of your day will be spent meditating and doing yoga. You will also eat a very strict, vegetarian diet. These retreats are highly acclaimed for restoring your body to a natural balance of energy and calm. After all, who can beat the combination of stress-free living, a well-balanced diet, and constant peace and serenity? It is no wonder that many flock to these retreats.

If you work a high stress job dealing with multiple people and constantly being on the go all the time, there are retreats that let you let go of all of that. You can escape your cell phone, your email, and even other people. These are called Solitude Retreats and whilst they offer a range of activities such as yoga and meditation, you have the option of hermitage. Here you live alone, and in silence. You interact with few to no people and never speak. If you need time for introspection and self-reflection, there can be no better retreat. It will let you discover the core of who you are and determine what really matters in your life.

Nourishment is not only essential for good bodily function. It also enhances feelings of tranquility and positivity. For these reasons, retreats that provide a focus on eating and nutrition are becoming popular. You spend days or even months detoxing, eating nutritious diets like juice and probiotic diets. This lifts your energy levels and boosts serotonin in your brain. You will be happier overall.

You can choose from an array of retreats. You have choices from nature retreats if you find your spiritual sustenance in the outdoors, or health and wellness retreats.
