Work Structure - Dark Flame

[FierFlye]

I think I will do this same thing. Do you guys think that yoga, meditation or chakra work qualifies as spiritual, though?

I think they can, yes. Yoga is one of those things (like any exercise) that can be spiritual or just physical. It depends on the person.

I think I'd add a spiritual goal to that list.

Okay, I have been working on lists of questions for each goal category. Basically the idea is that they are journaling prompts that will help the reader decide what they need to work on. Any questions I'm missing? I'm having the hardest time coming up with spiritual questions.

Physical
What health problems do you have? What dietary, nutritional, or exercise responsibilities do you shirk? What part of your body is the weakest? What physical goals do you have?

Emotional
How stable are your emotions? What is your base emotion? Which emotion/s do you have trouble with? How do you feel when you're alone? With others? How do you act toward others? How do you handle stress? What about your emotions do you wish you could change? What negative thoughts do you have?

Mental
What would you like to learn more about? What do you enjoy learning about? What don't you know much about that regularly effects you? How good is your memory?

Spiritual
How do you connect with the Divine? Is that connection as strong as you would like it to be?

That's one of the reasons I'm having a hard time with spiritual as a specific option - if it's concrete work, having a nebulous *thing* really defeats the purpose IMO.

I think a better question would be "how does this relate to being Divine?" to each piece.

Chiming in here with some thoughts that have worked for related kinds of reflections I've done in the past:

- Do you share any part of your spiritual practice with other people? If so, when and how?

- What do you do to connect your spiritual path to your daily life (i.e. through things you read, listen to, small actions throughout your day, etc.)

- What spiritual practices have you done the longest? Why do you keep coming back to that?

- What spiritual practices would you like to explore next? What are some ways you could include the chance to do that in your life?

- What do you wish were different about your spiritual practice? Why? What steps could you take to change that over time?

Thank you, Jenett, for those suggestions!

I really like this. I think it covers all the bases and leaves lots of room for individual circumstances.

I'm blogging about these one section at a time: here's the Physical section. I suspect these were the easiest of them all...

And here's the Emotional section. These were harder.

Is anyone else blogging/answering these?

I answered all of them at my old blog and now I am trying to figure out how to actually WORK on them.
