All of us are born with spiritual gifts unique to each of us. Unfortunately, we may not always see what they are or even know how to develop them. For the longest time, I’ve was one of those who was not actually sure what my spiritual gifts were meant to be, so I began doing something to gain that knowledge. I’ve starting utilizing a mantra each and every day to help myself see what my unique spiritual gifts were and I’m finally starting to understand that I’ve actually been using some of them for quite awhile without even knowing it. If you want to gain the same awareness of your own spiritual gifts, I encourage you to try using the following mantra, as I know it will help on that journey.

“My eyes are completely unblocked and unobstructed and I’m able to see and utilize all of my spiritual gifts.”

Peace, love, light, and joy,

I never felt good enough growing up. In fact, I always felt like I needed to try harder. Much of that belief system stemmed from the dysfunctional household I grew up in. Deep down my parents weren’t happy within themselves and they often chose alcohol to curb that unhappiness. An unfortunate side effect of their addiction and inner misery was that that nothing was ever done right in their eyes. So regardless of whether I did well in sports, school, chores, or anything else, it never mattered. Instead, my youth was spent trying to overachieve because my parents constantly cited out my shortcomings. By the time I reached adulthood, this pattern continued of me not feeling good enough in any area of my life. It wasn’t until a few years ago when I immersed myself in recovery that I even learned I was this way on a daily basis. It honestly had become a part of me because I had lived for so long in that way. Thankfully, I began utilizing mantras to help with negative character traits such as this and the following is a simple one that can help you if you too happen to be one who has never felt good enough…

“I am good enough on every level and in every way and everything I do is good enough too.”

Peace, love, light, and joy,

Building faith and trust in a Higher Power is an important thing to do, especially for someone like me who is in recovery from various addictions. But I’ve learned it’s also just as important to build faith and trust in myself given all the years of neglect and self-abuse I put myself through. It was a common thing for me to put myself down and doubt any of the decisions I made in life and even my own body’s natural ability to heal. Because of this I would go to friends, doctors, ministers, and many others and place my faith and trust into them, and often they would let me down. I never realized how much this was completely hindering my own spiritual growth. Today, I am using a daily mantra to correct this and it’s helping me to have a lot more faith and trust in myself and in the life I’m living with my Higher Power. If you are someone who struggles with having faith and trust in yourself, then I encourage you to utilize this mantra for a while as I know it will help to change that.
