Step 2:
cultivating an old soul
Last week, awakening a young spirit was about bringing light, creative force, and spontaneity back into your life.
Cultivating an old soul asks that you spend time knowing yourself and your deeper truths so that you can ground that free spirit in something meaningful and lasting. The soul is the eternal well from where your spirit rises. What is within, expresses externally. True beauty comes from self-discovery, from garnering the maturity achieved with age and transforming it into the sparkle of wisdom.
By cultivating an old soul, you learn how to build a powerful spiritual fire and purge the fear of aging. An old soul connects you with the universal promise of youth, and the divine truth that transcends all our cultural conditionings.
There are five fuels that fill our soul.
Stillness. Aging requires that we explore who we are beyond the physical façade. It begins with spending time alone in quiet stillness, allowing the faint voice of our true selves to be heard and fostered.
Tolerance. Time often creates intolerances that act as blocks to our soul’s growth. Tolerance is the key to new possibilities and experiences. It opens doors within our souls that allow fresh thought to erase stagnant beliefs.
Kindness. There is nothing more beautiful than a warm heart expressed through kindness. It provokes a powerful golden energy that touches everyone in your life and transforms the way others see you.
Forgiveness. To forgive as a daily practice before sleep clears the soul, removing dark energies that contaminate the spirit. Forgiveness is a strong wind that clears the soul of the heaviest particles of aging.
Love. Nothing grows your soul like allowing love be experienced through you. Find the one part of your being that you love the most, then be that love to the rest of the world.
By cultivating an old soul we learn to accept aging and finally discover the vitality of wisdom waiting beneath the temporary veil of youth.
Next week: Maintaining a healthy body.
