488. Making Sense of God, Religion and Spirituality

Author: Krista Williams & Lindsey Simcik January 18, 2022 Duration: 49:30
Do you believe in God? Contemplating your relationship to spirit can feel supercharged with triggering emotions, especially if we’ve had negative or uninspiring interactions with religion in the past.  In this episode, K + L reflect on their spiritual evolution and relationship with God. From traditional rituals of childhood conditioning to the framework they feel aligned with today. They discuss how they navigated resistance around what it means to believe in God, and how the process of unlearning conventions has helped them cultivate a connection with God that feels unconditional, authentic, and life-affirming.  We also talk about: Individual journeys with religion  Coming back to a relationship with God  Spectrums of religion Judgements in religion and consequences  How to make spirituality your own Sponsors: Athletic Greens | Get a 1-year supply of Vitamin D + five FREE travel packs with your first purchase at athleticgreens.com/almost30 Bev | Get 20% off your first purchase + free shipping at drinkbev.com/almost30 or use code “ALMOST30” at checkout Elavi | Get 15% off when you use the code ALMOST30 + free shipping on 2 pouches or more at elavi.co  Open | Get 30 days free with the code ALMOST30 at open-together.com/almost30 Daily Harvest | Use code ALMOST30 to get up to $40 off your first box at www.daily-harvest.com/almost30 Resources: “Waking Up: A Guide to Spirituality Without Religion” by Sam Harris  “The Untethered Soul: The Journey Beyond Yourself” by Michael A.
