About Spiritful Living

Why Spiritful Living Now?

Spiritful Living was born out of the chaos of 9/11 and into the possibility of a new century. On 9/12/2001, the overwhelming majority of people either found religion, turned to a trusted religion, sought to better understand religion, or ran from religion. But no matter where they turned, everyone, no matter what their background or belief, felt an increased longing for meaning, purpose, value, connection, resilience and transcendence: the Six Fundamental Human Desires that feed our spirit and unite us all.

Suddenly, a few things became clear:

• We all have spirit. We are all looking to be made whole, live well, remain true to our backgrounds and beliefs, yet still be able to question and grow.
• We can no longer use our beliefs as a weapon or a shield against others.
• Unlike body and mind, with spirit it is very hard to identify trustworthy experts who offer a safe, non-sectarian, reliable, coherent and comprehensive point of view and program.
• Being free to, or even knowing how to, express our spirit in rich, rewarding, yet responsible ways has become increasingly challenging in the 21st century.
• The current spirit "marketplace" is failing to meet the basic needs and fundamental desires of people everywhere.
• As busy, modern people we don’t have the time or expertise to navigate the ever-increasing options available to help us create a well-lived life. And so we struggle, looking for a safe space, and for teachers and counselors we can trust.
• We clearly need a new way to talk to one another, share and satisfy our deepest desires, and come together to create a better life for ourselves, others, and the world around us.

Spiritful Living was built from the ground up to overcome these challenges with timeless wisdom and timely advice, and give everyone a Path to Spirit Wellness regardless of what you affirm, align with, and abide in.
