So many people ask me “Is alcohol OK for someone on the spiritual path?” I believe every person needs to decide this for themselves, and since I am a spiritual coach and mentor, in today’s episode, I am sharing some ways to help you do that.
I will go over some important things to keep in mind, especially for highly sensitive/ highly creative people. You will also learn the three “red flags” to watch for regarding alcohol.
Watch the Full Video Episode:
“When you want to understand a spiritual teaching, let go of “right/wrong” and instead ask “Why?”
Takeaways
1. Why do some religions allow it and others don’t? Why was Jesus’ first miracle turning water to wine, but John the Baptist wasn’t allowed to touch alcohol?
2. When you want to understand a spiritual teaching, it’s important to let go of “right/ wrong” or “good/bad” and ask instead “Why?”
3. The goal of the spiritual path is absolute awareness, and anything that dulls your awareness, any substance or activity, is taking you in the opposite direction
