An Exercise to Connect with Divinity

Being reminded of divinity on a daily basis, whether we practice spirituality, religion or both, can be an important part of the journey toward positive change. This tool suggests placing symbols around your home that indicate warmth, safety, rest and divinity.

• Begin by taking yourself on a quest for symbols that give you a sense of peace and help you remember that you are a part of the divine. The divine is not complete without you. These symbols could be crystals, candles, magically imbued seashells, spiritual or religious relics, etc.

• Designate a place in your home that can serve as your “anchor” for your connection to the divine in your life. It is a beautiful thing, to have items that symbolize this connection. Create an altar, light a candle once a day and offer a silent prayer of gratitude for all of your blessings.

• As you go about your day, notice your altar every chance you get. Upon noticing, get into a quiet, heart space and allow yourself to reflect, ponder, rest and connect with the divinity that is within you.

  These gentle reminders will begin to strengthen your connection with the divine in your life.
