The most important aspect of being human is in understanding that you are not just an organic body grounded to the Earth. You are comprised of a powerful energy that you share with the rest of the Universe. Whether you follow a religion or not, you can still be spiritual and inspired by believing in yourself and in your ability to call on that higher power.
The following outline contains methods and techniques that I have used to help tap into this incredible energy. It will constantly change as I learn more, making it a perennial page of articles and stories for you to explore. Please use what you feel will help your journey, and then take it to the next level by investigating and studying on your own. If you have a story to tell, please write and share it on our blog.
