Spiritual discernment
Discernment is the mental ability to judge people, objects, or situations clearly and intelligently. It is the process of sifting through complexities to recognize hidden truths, appreciate subtle differences, and make wise decisions. In the context of the spiritual realm, spiritual discernment is about applying these principles of soundly being able to sift through complexities and recognize hidden truth in relation to your spirit or spiritual practices; your energy. (Sounds a lot like shadow work)
But how do we decide who or what gets our energy? And how do we not allow these walls to in case our spirit?
The more connected I become to myself, to my inner being, to the core of who I am, the more I am able to consciously connect what feels like is draining my energy and what feels like it is energizing. We always have this choice within us, most of the time it is very subconscious, and we are not aware of this mental battle going on within us. But when we can pause, we can consciously decide to go in the direction that feels aligned with our higher selves.
Spiritual discernment is the art of connecting inward to move outward. Using your energy channel as your guiding light for spiritual evolution. In reality, your energy protection is a part of your spiritual discernment. And the more you deeply connect with this inner guide, the clearer these channels become.
