From Surviving to Thriving: Spiritual Rest as a Catalyst for Healing with Kelly Marie, Front Seat Life

13 minutes

Ep. 25 Are you feeling disconnected from your sense of purpose and meaning in life? Struggling to find peace and tranquillity in your daily routine? It might be time to explore ways to incorporate more spiritual rest into your life.

In this final episode in this series on Rest, host Soda Kuczkowski is once again joined by Elder Kelly Marie, to explore Spiritual Rest as a catalyst for enhancing overall well-being.

This conversation offers an in-depth understanding of spiritual rest outside the realms of religion and tradition, bringing to light alternative perspectives on attaining peace and fulfillment by aligning values and beliefs in daily life.

Key Takeaways:

Spiritual rest encompasses a sense of connection, meaning, and purpose that goes beyond religious practices—it's about inner peace and alignment.

Recognizing a spiritual rest deficit involves introspection on one's sense of purpose, tranquillity in daily routines, and the persistent pursuit of an undefined 'something more.'

Community and spirituality hold a paramount role in supporting mental health, offering a sense of belonging, and bolstering resilience in individuals.

Notable Quotes:

"Spiritual rest is the deep sense of peace and fulfillment that occurs from feeling connected to something greater than yourself." - Soda Kuczkowski

"Meditation and mindfulness are a big part of my daily practice, and that is not something that I started out with." - Kelly Marie on personal evolution in practicing spiritual rest.
