How Spiritual Instability Damages Your Physical & Mental Health
Summary: Being disconnected from your spirit and your true self can cause a myriad of mental and physical health issues. But how can you be more spiritually stable?
There is a strong connection between your physical, mental, and spiritual health. We will be focusing on how spiritual instability can damage your physical and mental health. If you would like to know how mental instability can cause damage to your physical health, be sure to check out my video on that.
Much like how mental instability can cause physical health issues, spiritual instability can cause both mental and physical health issues. This leads to a cascading effect where you could be eating well, mentally doing well, and yet develop all sorts of physical health issues and later some mental health issues. The initial decline can be gradual, but your health will rapidly begin to get worse the more you suppress.
Each and every one of us is a spiritual being having a human experience. Denial of this has us only focus on the physical, and what explanations can be done that can be physically proven. While it is important to have proof for our beliefs, there is no way we can know all the answers. Furthermore, attempts to know will lead to us becoming frustrated, narcissistic, and our physical and mental health will decline.
We are all connected to source energy. When we are asleep, or when we are meditating or in a relaxed state, we allow this energy to enter our body and provide every cell with the energy it needs to function properly. There are many distractions in today’s world that take away our concentration and ability to allow energy to enter our body. These distractions are electronics, such as phones and computers, and society, specifically people who greatly influence us in a negative way, such as comparing ourselves to others or deterring us from our true self.
A disconnection from your true self is also another form of spiritual disconnection. We each are here for a reason, a purpose, and it’s up to us to find that purpose and fulfill it. However, due to the distractions mentioned a moment ago, this became difficult. Your purpose in life is what your true self desires. The feeling you have when you wake up with a mission and goal to accomplish and feel content with your life. Loss of happiness and content leads to an unstable connection of your physical body and your spiritual self. When this happens, physical and mental health issues will arise.
Lack of motivation, lack of interest in life, and lack of happiness are all the first signs that you are mentally unwell. Spiritual instability first shows signs via your mental health. Why do you lack interest and motivation? Why aren’t you happy? No magic pill will solve these, and if you’re unable to resolve it, physical health issues will manifest. This is why it’s important to distance yourself from those that are steering you down this negative path and instead look inward for the answers. Your spiritual self, your true self, has all the answers, and all you have to do is tap into it.

What would make you happy in life? And how do you get there? Is what makes you happy something you feel you are lacking? If so, why and how would it help? Happiness doesn’t come from having what you are lacking. Rather, happiness comes from fulfilling your purpose in life and what you were sent here to do, and only you can answer that question. If you feel money will make you happy, then realize that no amount of money in the world will make you happy if you are still unable to motivate yourself and connect with your true self and do what you were sent here to do. Rather, it will make you more depressed and sad as the void grows larger, causing mental and health issues. If instead you have a passion in life, but money is the obstacle, but you focus on your passion, then money will come to you when the time is right.
The true way to be spiritually stable is to connect with your true self and do what you were meant to do. Do you wake up with dread or determination? If it’s the former, then the best thing you can do is look inside for answers. There are no answers to be had outside of yourself since they all lead to dead ends where you trick yourself into being happy. Find the answers within and you’ll be spiritually stable, which leads you to mental and physical wellbeing.
Let me know how this works for you. Have a great day!

There have been times in my life where I felt completely lost and didn’t know where to go or what to do with my life. Doubt would overcome me as I felt more and more disconnected from myself, leading to mental health problems which cascaded into physical health issues. But with time, I was able to reconnect with myself and figure out what I truly wanted and what would make me happy. I have accomplished so much and feel a drive within me that motivates me. That’s how I know I’m on the right path.
