Spiritual Counseling
In traditional counseling a person provides guidance or advice to someone in need of this service. People seek counseling for several reasons, such as to overcome substance abuse, find worldly direction, make some positive changes, or repair relationships. Everybody can use some good advice and an outside perspective in life! This is why counseling is beneficial and useful to society.
Spiritual counseling is very similar. The only exception is that in spiritual counseling the end result is not only changes in the person’s daily life, but the purpose of their entire life! The advice given in spiritual counseling sessions is based on spiritual principles. The belief is that if individual grows spiritually through the challenges in life, they begin to see life with deeper meaning. The choices that begin to be made in spiritual counseling benefit not only worldly needs, but emotional and mental needs as well.
A spiritual counselor doesn’t have to endorse any particular religious belief. Often times they don’t subscribe to one spiritual philosophy, but rather encourage the individual to discover or grow in their own personal spiritual beliefs. Spiritual counseling is not about imposing beliefs, but creating a fulfilling and meaningful life around an individual’s beliefs.
However, some religious leaders within organized religion offer spiritual counseling. They counsel through religious doctrine. For example, a pastor may counsel a couple with marital problems using the bible. This is highly useful for individuals who are strongly rooted within the Christian Church. They may find comfort in the words of Christ to help them through rough spots within their marriage.
Spiritual counseling is beneficial in developing a connection to a force greater than the individual. When an individual finds spiritual meaning in daily life, they strive for success not only to improve their own life, but the lives of those around them. They grow in spiritual awareness. They begin to understand that they accomplish more when they don’t try to do it on their own. As humans, when we humble ourselves to a higher force, we become greater at achieving the goals that make a difference.
Spiritual counseling is a great way to help learn how to bring spirituality into our daily lives, so we can find the strength to overcome, heal and life a life with higher purpose.
