Hmmm...how about everyone shares how they are doing...what kind of things you are dealing with spiritually or anything you feel like talking about pertaining to your life. Come on, people, we must discuss!!! ;D
Here it goes: I personally am doing alright. I feel sort of out of touch with divinity though. I feel disconnected too...not quite centered. I want to be more in control of my life, and I want to enjoy it. I also need to get out more in nature. I know I want to take the Wiccan route. It's just a matter of actually DOING it... I want to make some progress here. I want to feel a change, and I want to inspire change.
So...who's next (feel free to comment on anything as well)?

So i gotta rush some more! i'm hopng it'll cslow down in a few days but untill then i just have to keep on going!

hi me to. A couple of months ago my life took a turn for the worse i got in to a very bad violent relationship and basically everything was going wrong, which meant that i didnt do any thing spiritual etc so i feel like i have lost that connection with divinity. Its slowly getting better i have started doing more meditation etc. There is some good advise on the general board under the thread Advise for re gaining touch with divinity hope that helps As for good de stressing techniques 3 slow breath's always helps me to calm down. Hope things slow down for you soon ;D Brightest Blessings xxx Amanda xxx

one excellent teqnique is to use the chakras in you hands and feet. Can be done standing, sitting, or laying down, whatever makes you comfortable. Visualize the cares and issues and 'woes' of the day melting down, "sort of like butter as it melts" through your body from the top of your head down your body. Feel it pour from the palms of your hands and out the bottom of your feet. I use the image of laying in a river and having the water pour through me washing out all the cares of the day. It takes only a few minutes to complete the process. As the cares 'wash' out, the muscles relax and I feel much better. I've used it at work, and as I lay in bed to help me fall asleep. I find I rest much deeper using this method.

I appreciate everyone replying!!! I am glad we are starting talk... It seems like we are all kinda in the same boat, but I appreciate the advice we are giving each other too. It helps to know we are not alone. It's so important for me to have my spirituality as a base for my everyday life. And I was hoping that chatting with others who are pagan or Wiccan...whatever...would help me to start thinking about my path towards spiritual fulfillment. So far, I have thought more and more about the God and Goddess and I have even taken a closer look at my life. So this really helps...I enjoy hearing everyone's input. Anyway, I might try that meditation, Jadesage...and yes, deep breaths are helpful, Amanda. Keep talking or make a new post! Whatever helps us change and grow...or even just think...could really impact our lives. Oh, and thanks for the information about the posts on getting more connected with divinity, Amanda. I hope that you are healing from your tough relationship. You are such a kind person, and I am sure there are many people out there that will treat you the way you deserve to be treated. And Ravenmaid...sounds to me like you need to schedule a day to yourself...if at all possible...your about ready to crash from how it sounds. I wish you luck on finding some time and some peace. Anyone just now reading this post...please feel free to join in!

Well, my summer is almost over. In fact, I start up newspaper Tuesday, and band starts the week after that. I need to get in touch with my journalism sponser though. My summer was going great, but then I got grounded lol, I'm so good at that. I'm gonna have a full plate this year, I have Band, which takes up most of my time, Newspaper, which will probly take up the rest of my time, then I have AP English 3, AP US History, French 3, Speech, and 2 other classes, but I forgot what they are lol. I dunno where I'm gonna have time for my friends or a job, or Wicca in there... I think I'm gonna go crazy lol.
