What Does Alignment Look Like?
Even if you’re not a spiritually minded person, you must admit that alignment is everywhere.
A car wouldn’t drive safely without proper alignment.
The same concept is true with our spirits and the universe.
Our physical body, our mind, and our spirit must all be facing the same direction to move forward.
Those who are spiritually aligned know that their dreams are within their grasp, and know what they need to do to get there.
Alignment looks like someone operating with a purpose.
Driven, conscientious are spiritually aligned, even if they don’t consciously recognize it.
Signs You’re Out of Alignment
The majority of people will stumble through their lives without ever noticing that they’re out of alignment with the universe.
Those who have experienced alignment, though, will know what it feels like to need to recalibrate.
The most common ways to tell that you need to align yourself with the universe is the sensation of not feeling like yourself.
On cold, drab days it’s hard to maintain a positive attitude, but this feeling is more than that.
It’s as if you’re going through the motions of your life without any purpose.
That wandering feeling is a telltale sign that you need spiritual alignment.
Here are some of the others:
Depression
Doctors can link depression to a host of causes, and symptoms manifest themselves in different ways.
Most of the time, depression is linked to a substantial loss.
Other times, depression comes on for no discernible reason.
Depression isn’t the same as the grieving process.
If you’ve lost a loved one, it’s understandable to feel sad for a while.
You eventually have to ask yourself, “Am I holding on to this feeling?”
If you feel this way for a long time, you’ll get used to it, which puts you out of sync with the universe.
Focus on what you can control, and the things for which you’re thankful.
These are the best ways to pull yourself out of depression and kickstart your spiritual alignment.
Fatigue and Irritability
Sleep is critical, but feeling fatigue after a few nights of lackluster sleep is normal.
If your fatigue goes deeper, though, you’re probably out of alignment with the universe.
If your ambition starts to decline and you become complacent, it’s one of the key signs you’re experiencing unalignment.
Likewise, if you start to feel your mood change negatively, you’re drifting further away from where the universe wants you.
Cynicism is all too present in our culture, and even the most spiritual among us as subject to feeling this way.
Still, your overwhelming tendency should be to love and accept.
If it’s not, you need to align yourself with the universe better.
How to Achieve Spiritual Alignment
Achieving alignment with the universe is a lot easier than you may think.
If you’ve gone away from meditating after a long period, try going back for a few minutes each day.
This is the best way to clear your mind, discover your vision and become one with the universal consciousness.
The universe wants you to be aligned.
Alignment is our natural state, and while we may find ourselves deviate from the path, we’re never too far to come back.
Practice Gratitude
One of the best ways to get out of a pattern of negative thinking is to take conscious account of everything you have in your life.
If meditation is enough, then focus on everything you have to be grateful for.
If that’s not sufficient, take a few minutes each day to write a list of everything positive in your life.
The more you say “thank you” to people and the universe, the better your life will be.
Diet and Exercise
Once you start down the path of spiritual awakening, you may find that you gravitate towards more natural sources of food.
Processed food just doesn’t do the trick anymore, and some people go so far as to become vegans.
Alignment means everything in your life is focusing on the same goal.
This goes for your physical body as well.
Go for a jog, lift some weights, and eat healthy, organic foods.
Eating right and exercising may be a bit larger of a life change, but it’s worth it in the long run.
Be The Best Version of Yourself
Once your mind, body, and soul work together with the powers of the universe, you’ll be on the path of harnessing your greatest potential.
Mediate, give thanks, and don’t forget about the physical vessel.
Once you do that, your spirit will be aligned with the universe, and you can make the most out of your time in this body.
