What is Sadhana?
The word Sadhana / Sadhna means: “a methodical discipline to attain desired knowledge or spiritual goal”. In other words it is a daily spiritual practice.
This practice can include a variety of disciplines that come from Yoga, Energy work, Self-development, Self-improvement, or from traditions like Hinduism, Buddhism or Sikhism.
Sadhana is done for attaining a higher level of awareness and consciousness. It is done for a level of spiritual realization, detachment from ego, liberation and enlightenment.
Practicing daily spiritual habits means you can live and thrive rather than being bounced around by your external world, other people and the whims of your thought and emotions.
Shift from Surviving to Thriving
There’s a huge difference between surviving and thriving.
To survive means to “continue to live or exist, especially in spite of danger, crisis, hardship or stress.”
To thrive means to “flourish, to prosper, to have abundance, to be fortunate or successful, to grow or develop vigorously.”
When we are in survival mode we are concerned about our basic physiological needs as well as our safety. We are not concerned about personal development or spiritual enlightenment. We are not concerned, for example, about eating healthy or making our heart felt career choice. We are concerned only about getting food in and having any job that will bring in income, regardless of how harmful or soul numbing this can be for us.
When we live in survival it means our level of consciousness has lowered. Our vibration has lowered. Our awareness constricts and we start living a very small existence.
When our energy and vibration lowers, our emotional health lowers as well. We start to feel downward spiraling emotions like frustration, doubt, worry, depression, hopelessness, fear.
When being in a space of survival we loose the ability to see possibility and opportunity. We get tunnel vision and our lives are thick with past memories and future worries.
At this point all we can do is try get through the day.
However, by adding just one healthy habit or one life hack we start to make a shift. This shift is ever so small, but this shift creates a bit more space, a bit more awareness, a slither of hope.
If we continue to practice the habit, we then create enough energy to add another and then another habit. Slowly we raise our vibration and consciousness. Our emotions start to shift upwards, our self esteem raises, we make healthier choices, we begin living in the present.
When our vibration raises even more we are able to take on and maintain Sadhana practices.
Through the act of daily practice we move upwards towards our spiritual goals and soul purpose.
