5 Stages of Spiritual Awakening: Which One Are You In? · The Spirit Nomad: Spiritual Awakening + Life Purpose

  Do you feel like you're going through a spiritual awakening
• 0:02
  and you're feeling a bit crazy, don't know what the heck is
• 0:05
  going on? Then this video is for you.
• 0:07
  I'm going to share the five stages of spiritual awakening
• 0:10
  that you can know where are you at and what's coming next and
• 0:13
  when this shit is over. Because the truth is, spiritual
• 0:16
  awakening is not one moment. It's a process.
• 0:19
  And depending on where you are, your entire reality can feel
• 0:23
  completely different. Each stage has its own
• 0:25
  challenges, its own emotions, and its own traps you can get
• 0:29
  stuck in and and once you see where you are, everything starts
• 0:32
  to make a lot more sense. I'm Julia, a spiritual coach,
• 0:35
  and I help spiritual seekers navigate their spiritual
• 0:38
  awakening and stepping into their life purpose.
• 0:41
  So without further ado, here's the first stage and that is the
• 0:44
  wake up call. So at this point, something in
• 0:46
  your life doesn't feel right anymore.
• 0:48
  You start questioning everything, your job, your
• 0:51
  relationships, your path, and what used to feel normal now
• 0:54
  feels off. You might feel lost, confused,
• 0:58
  disconnected, but this is actually a very, very powerful
• 1:00
  stage because it's the moment you realize I don't want to live
• 1:04
  on autopilot anymore. Most people, they live their
• 1:07
  life based on other people's expectations, like their
• 1:10
  families, parents, societies. And at this point you're
• 1:13
  realizing I want to live a more soul aligned life.
• 1:16
  And that awareness is the first step.
• 1:18
  So for me, I always thought that I wanted a job at Google and
• 1:21
  eventually I got there just to realize, Oh no, this is not the
• 1:24
  life I want. I want freedom.
• 1:26
  I want a soft life. And I read the book The Four
• 1:28
  Hour Workweek by Ferris and that changed my life.
• 1:31
  I realized this is what I want. Time freedom and location
• 1:35
  freedom. No boss telling me what to do.
• 1:37
  And I realized there's so many things I was doing in autopilot.
• 1:40
  For example, drinking alcohol. I've never actually enjoyed
• 1:44
  alcohol so I just decided to stop.
• 1:46
  I now only drink alcohol once a year as a fun thing with my
• 1:49
  partner and I feel strong enough to not crave into peer pressure.
• 1:52
  I was also in the spiritual closet at the time.
• 1:55
  I was kind of hiding that I was spiritual.
• 1:57
  But at this point I'm realized I just want people to love me for
• 2:00
  me. I'm done being this chameleon
• 2:02
  who just adapts to everybody they meet.
• 2:05
  So everybody thinks, Oh my gosh, I'm the bestest, I'm their best
• 2:08
  friend. But then they don't actually
• 2:09
  truly know me. And once I reveal a little here
• 2:12
  and there, eventually they're like, I feel like I don't even
• 2:14
  know you. So for me, this happened around
• 2:17
  8:50 years ago. This stage, the next one is the
• 2:20
  seeking. Now you start searching, you're
• 2:23
  drawn to spirituality, self development, deeper truths.
• 2:27
  You might get into meditation and manifestation and everything
• 2:31
  feels exciting, like you're finally finding answers.
• 2:34
  But here's the trap. You can get stuck consuming
• 2:37
  without integrating, always looking for the next answer
• 2:40
  instead of embodying what you already know.
• 2:42
  And I meet so many spiritual people who just get stuck for
• 2:45
  years in this phase. For me, they started after I
• 2:48
  realized, OK, I want to become a digital nomad.
• 2:50
  So I booked a ticket to South America and I was going to
• 2:53
  become a freelancer working for my laptop while backpacking.
• 2:56
  It didn't quite happen. It took a few years before, but
• 2:59
  this this is where I got really drawn to spirituality, like to
• 3:02
  the next level because I went to do a ayahuasca retreat.
• 3:06
  Ayahuasca is a psychedelic, so it's a drink you take and you
• 3:09
  start seeing things. I saw spirits.
• 3:11
  It's a whole other story. I have made videos about it, but
• 3:13
  basically I realized there is more to life than what we see.
• 3:17
  I grew up an atheist and yes, I had been doing yoga.
• 3:20
  I was spiritual in that sense. But this is when I was like, OK,
• 3:23
  I got to dig deeper. So I bought like every spiritual
• 3:25
  book I went to, courses, retreats in trying to find my
• 3:30
  spiritual path. Next stage is the perch.
• 3:32
  And this is where things get real.
• 3:34
  So old pattern starts coming up, limiting beliefs, emotional
• 3:38
  wounds, fears. It can feel really heavy and you
• 3:41
  might question everything again, but this time on a deeper level.
• 3:44
  This is often called the dark night of the soul, but it's not
• 3:46
  here to break you, but to clear what's not aligned anymore.
• 3:50
  And yeah, I would say this is the hardest part probably in the
• 3:53
  spiritual awakening. I find that usually
• 3:55
  opportunities will come where you're tested, for example, in
• 3:58
  your relationship or friendships.
• 4:00
  Will you have boundaries? Will you give in to fear?
• 4:03
  So yeah, not easy stuff. Stage 4 is the embodiment.
• 4:08
  Now things start to stabilize. You're not just learning
• 4:11
  anymore, you're living it. You trust yourself more.
• 4:14
  You listen to your intuition, you make decisions that actually
• 4:17
  align with you. Life feels more grounded.
• 4:20
  And if you're in this stage, I really encourage you to make a
• 4:23
  dream board of everything that you want to manifest in your
• 4:27
  life that feels aligned with your soul.
• 4:29
  And I reckon and then you sit in meditation for a while before to
• 4:32
  really make sure these decisions, these goals are
• 4:34
  coming from your soul and not your ego because they often want
• 4:37
  different things. Stage 5 is the expression.
• 4:41
  And at this point you want to help others.
• 4:44
  You want to create, teach, express your truth.
• 4:47
  There's less fear of being seen and more focused on being
• 4:50
  authentic. You're no longer hiding who you
• 4:52
  are. So this was me when I started
• 4:54
  the Spirit Nomad blog and my YouTube channel.
• 4:57
  This was probably 7 years ago now.
• 4:59
  So at this point might be looking for, OK, what is my
• 5:01
  purpose? What am I here to share?
• 5:04
  What are my gifts? And if you want help with that,
• 5:06
  I have a free guide link in the description on how to find your
• 5:09
  purpose in five simple steps. In there you can also find a
• 5:11
  free business clerical with our team where you can get guided on
• 5:15
  what would be like the best niche, the best purpose for you.
• 5:19
  And there you can also explore whether you're a match for Nomad
• 5:22
  Freedom Academy, where I teach you how to create a business
• 5:26
  around your passion. So you no longer need a nine to
• 5:28
  five job for many spiritual people.
• 5:30
  Most spiritual people are empaths, so they struggle in
• 5:33
  nine to five jobs, especially office shops.
• 5:36
  So having a job where you can work from home like this and
• 5:38
  earn passive income from your content usually feels really
• 5:41
  nice. That's soft life.
• 5:43
  So if that's you, then definitely apply for a free
• 5:45
  business card to go. Now, something I need to say
• 5:47
  before we go, these stages aren't linear.
• 5:50
  You don't just go from 1:00 to 5:00 and stay there forever.
• 5:53
  You move back and forth. You revisit stages on deeper
• 5:56
  levels. That's part of the process.
• 5:58
  So take a moment and ask yourself, where am I right now?
• 6:01
  Am I waking up, seeking, releasing, integrating, or
• 6:04
  expressing? Let me know which stage you are
• 6:06
  at currently in this spiritual awakening you're experiencing
• 6:09
  now and know that you are exactly where you need to be for
• 6:12
  your next level of growth. And if you are in that last
• 6:15
  stage, the fifth stage where you want to express yourself and
• 6:19
  actually make money from your gift, then definitely watch my
• 6:22
  next video, Best Business Models for Spiritual People.
• 6:25
  Love you so much and see you in the next video.
