We live in a truly
fascinating universe. It is a place full of mystery and adventure and there is an
endless array of things that we struggle to explain away with science and
logic. Many of us feel that there is a certain something, an unknowable and
mysterious something, which permeates every facet of our existence. Not
everyone agrees. Whether this is because it is something that only reveals
itself to some of us or it’s because those people just aren’t looking, it can
sometimes feel like there are chasms separating our differing experiences of
the universe.
It is also incorrect
to think that exploring your spiritual side is a rejection of the principles of
logic and science. Rather, it is an acknowledgment
of the limits of our human understanding of a universe which is infinitely more
complex and beautiful than we could ever comprehend. Engaging your spiritual
side can be a really wonderful bonding experience for you and your family. In
this article, we are taking a look at some simple yet thoroughly enjoyable
activities that your whole family can participate in to expand the horizons of consciousness.
The Power of Nature
For those of us who do
not believe in a God, or any other kind of supreme deity, there is still an
undeniable, omnipotent, and in many ways, all-knowing,
force in the universe. We call it nature, and it is nature which allows our
universe to play out the way it does. The laws of nature dictate what is and
isn’t possible, and while we don’t yet fully understand nature, we are all
capable of admiring its majesty.
Taking your family out
on a camping trip to admire the beautiful stars in the night sky and the infinite variety of
wildlife that we can witness during the day is an excellent way of bringing you
closer to nature and to one another.
Stones
Whether you believe
that precious gems and stones are able to influence their surroundings and the
moods of those who possess them, there is no denying their beauty. The way that
many of these stones are formed in nature is remarkable. Hidden within them is
a fascinating tale of how natural processes are able to mold and remold matter into
wonderful new combinations. Check out accessgems.com for a guide to the purported properties of
precious stones.
Meditation
Meditation and
mindfulness are becoming increasingly popular practices for a wide range of
individuals. The benefits that they provide are scientifically proven and
are a powerful testament to the power that our minds have over our bodies. Whether
you practice meditation alone or as a group, it provides an excellent tool for
you and your family to explore the depths of your own consciousness.
Exploring your
spiritual side isn’t something that many of us have considered doing before.
Sure, we all have that one friend who just won’t shut up about their magic
crystals and their chi, and most of us nod and smile but don’t really believe.
However, exploring your spiritual side doesn’t mean rejecting science and
reason, and if it isn’t for you then you can always turn back, but it is worth
exploring to see where it takes you.
