What is Spiritual Wellness?

Spiritual wellness is the practice of caring for the wellbeing of your spiritual self. Until recently, the focus of the global $1bn wellness industry has been on supporting our physical, mental and emotional health but actually the wellbeing of our spiritual self is equally if not even more so important.

At Aura we believe that spiritual wellness will be the next big focus of the wellness movement, looking at the importance of nurturing your soul alongside your body and mind.

Often when we take care of our spiritual needs, the impact is felt across the physical and emotional, leading to a more fulfilled, happy and healthy self.

What does Spiritual Wellness involve?

We believe that spiritual wellness isn’t just about religion. Its about connecting with the true essence of the self: the soul.

A spiritual wellness journey is a personal quest to answer the big questions of life and find meaning, purpose and a connection to something greater than the physical self – whatever you want to call it: God, the universe, source, consciousness, the creator, the divine, intelligence etc.

We believe that living in alignment with the soul and source is the key to living a life of fulfilment and happiness.

The starting point is simply to acknowledge that we are not humans having a spiritual experience but rather spirits having a human experience. As Laura Lynne Jackson puts it, we are souls coming down to “Earth School” to experience love and lessons our souls have contracted to learn in this lifetime or over a period of several lifetimes.

Spiritual wellness starts with this awareness that we are not just our physical selves but that we are a soul. And our mission at Aura is to support us all as we journey deeper and deeper into our souls, God and our purpose.

We do this by connecting our community with the many fantastic teachers and practitioners in this field to deepen our understand and connection with our spiritual selves.

Thank you for journeying alongside us, we are grateful to each and every beautiful soul in our community.
