E8 P2: Connecting to Your Spirit Through Big Life Transitions - with Elena Borrega
How to Create Inner Calm When Everything Around You Is Changing
Life transitions come in many forms: retirement, a breakup, the loss of a pet, moving to a new city, or even the birth of a child. These changes can stir up deep questions about identity, purpose, and belonging — often leaving us feeling disoriented and unsteady.
In part two of our discussion with Elena Borrega, she shares the tools and practices that have helped her reconnect to her spirit during such transitions. Whether you’re navigating grief, growth, or simply a new chapter, these practices can help you recalibrate when life feels unfamiliar.
5 Practices to Reconnect to Your Spirit
Daily Review:
Take a few minutes each day to reflect. What moments brought you joy, discomfort, or insight? A daily review helps you stay connected to what’s happening within you.Journaling:
Write freely about your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Journaling can reveal patterns, desires, and emotions that may otherwise go unnoticed.Silent Retreats (At Home):
You don’t need to travel for a silent retreat. Set aside a few hours or even a full day at home without distractions — no phone, no TV, just quiet reflection. This space allows you to tune into your inner voice.Spiritual Reading:
Engage with books or teachings that inspire spiritual growth and self-awareness. This can provide perspective and guidance during uncertain times.Intentional Presence:
Whether it’s through meditation, nature walks, or simple breathing exercises, practicing presence helps anchor you in the moment rather than getting lost in “what ifs.”
Try This at Home: The Daily Review
At the end of each day, ask yourself:
What moments felt meaningful today?
Where did I feel disconnected or uncomfortable?
What did I learn about myself?
This simple habit can help you recalibrate gradually, keeping you connected to your spirit as you navigate change.
The takeaway:
Transitions don’t have to leave you feeling lost. With intention, reflection, and openness, you can step into your divine energy and trust that whatever is happening is happening for you.
