What is it and why might you need it?
Spiritual direction is a one-on-one or small group process of working intentionally toward deepening your relationship with The Divine. Most spiritual traditions have some form of Spiritual Direction.
Have you experienced spiritual abuse or trauma that pushed you not only away from religion, but from God as well? Do you feel a tension between what you were told you “need to believe” and what you think you may actually believe? Would you like to reconnect with your faith? Are you feeling that you want to go “deeper” into your spiritual beliefs and make them a bigger part of your everyday life?
As a spiritual director, J.R. will listen to these goals and challenges and work with you to achieve your goals. This may include talking through your spiritual history, exploring what you personally believe and why, trying out new spiritual practices (such as different forms of prayer or meditation) and incorporating them into your daily life.
Another term sometimes used for a spiritual director is anam cara, a term used by Celtic traditions and meaning “soul friend.” A journey is better with a friend. You don’t have to feel alone, they can help you when you reach rough terrain and catch you when you fall.
