Show transcript

00:00:02: Welcome to a new episode of SoulUp.

00:00:06: Today's topic might be a little uncomfortable, don't worry it won't be intense.

00:00:11: just a bit uncomfortable because today we're talking about the seven biggest misconceptions About The Soul Misconceptions I've been observing for years in coaching sessions and training programs In spiritual communities And To Be Honest Sometimes Even In Myself Because the soul is probably one of the most talked about and at the same time, most misunderstood topics.

00:00:41: That's why we're clearing things up a bit today with a wink!

00:00:45: And maybe even with a few aha moments for you?

00:00:49: Let's get started!

00:00:51: Misconception number One My Soul Wants Me To Become Perfect.

00:00:58: This Is Probably One Of The Biggest Misconceptions Of All.

00:01:03: Many people believe if I follow my soul then eventually, I'll become perfect serene loving Enlightened always in a good mood.

00:01:14: Always in my center.

00:01:16: In short A mix of Buddha mother Teresa and an Instagram filter.

00:01:23: And the bad news.

00:01:25: That's not how it works!

00:01:27: The Good News.

00:01:28: It doesn't work that way because The soul wants to gain experience.

00:01:36: It needs the whole human experience, courage and fear too love and vulnerability trust in doubt.

00:01:48: In my view growth is not perfection.

00:01:52: Growth is awareness.

00:01:56: Misconception number two!

00:01:59: The soul speaks constantly in light & Love.

00:02:03: Many expect big messages from their Soul A voice from the universe, a heavenly telegram.

00:02:11: Perhaps with a golden border?

00:02:13: Reality often looks different.

00:02:16: The soul speaks in surprisingly unspectacular ways.

00:02:21: It speaks of interest curiosity joy connection Harmony vitality.

00:02:29: Often the soul doesn't say go to Bali and find your enlightenment but rather call that person.

00:02:36: or Finally, take that course or stop constantly belittling yourself.

00:02:44: The soul usually works whispering not with a megaphone.

00:02:51: Misconception number three if I know my sole plan everything will be totally easy-peasy.

00:03:00: That would be nice.

00:03:02: unfortunately thats nonsense.

00:03:04: many people believe.

00:03:06: as soon All my problems will disappear.

00:03:11: Everything will flow, everything will work out and become

00:03:16: magical.".

00:03:18: Do you want to know the truth?

00:03:20: Sometimes that's when real work begins after knowing what your soul wants to experience.

00:03:29: because suddenly YOU KNOW WHAT YOU REALLY WANT AND NOW YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE CURRENCE TO LIVE IT!

00:03:36: The Soul shows you the way... You have to walk it yourself.

00:03:42: Misconception number four, the soul always wants harmony.

00:03:50: This is my favorite misconception because if that were true My soul would definitely have taken a vacation during certain phases of my life.

00:04:02: Many believe this soul.

00:04:04: once peace calm Harmony no conflicts No friction.

00:04:09: But growth rarely happens in the comfort zone.

00:04:13: Sometimes, the soul leads us right into these situations we want to avoid.

00:04:18: Why?

00:04:19: Because that's where growth awaits.

00:04:22: Not every challenge is a mistake.

00:04:24: Some challenges are lessons.

00:04:31: Misconception number five The soul is something outside of me.

00:04:38: This really fascinating point.

00:04:40: Many people talk about their souls as if it were a distant relative.

00:04:45: Somewhere out there in the universe, In The Afterlife on cloud nine maybe with Wi-Fi!

00:04:53: But what If the soul isn't separate from you at all?

00:04:58: What if It wants to express itself through You right now?

00:05:03: Through your words Your decisions Your talents Your relationships Your life?

00:05:11: It's not about finding the soul.

00:05:14: it is about embodying it.

00:05:18: Misconception number six, spiritual people have found their souls!

00:05:26: Its almost like saying congratulations.

00:05:29: level completed soul found.

00:05:32: next.

00:05:32: please to be honest I know that once you find your soul You're definitely not done.

00:05:41: Awareness is NOT a destination.

00:05:44: Awareness is a process, relationship or dialogue.

00:05:49: A living path and that's exactly why we remain learners all of us always during our whole life.

00:06:02: Misconception number seven The soul gives me answers And now comes perhaps the biggest misconception ever.

00:06:13: Many people are looking for answers asks questions.

00:06:20: Questions like, who do you want to be?

00:06:24: What Do You Want To Stand For ?

00:06:27: What DoYouWantToLearn ?

00:06:30: WhatDoYouWantsToBringInToTheWorld?

00:06:34: The soul does not relieve us of our responsibility.

00:06:37: it invites us take responsibility and that is precisely where its power lies.

00:06:45: the real question isn't Am I living in connection with my soul?

00:06:54: Because there is a huge difference between knowing and embodying.

00:06:59: Anyone can read thousand spiritual books, meditate take courses listen to podcasts And still live past themselves or you can start taking the small signals seriously.

00:07:13: What feels true what brings you to life?

00:07:17: What wants to grow?

00:07:22: My personal perspective on the soul.

00:07:25: If someone were to ask me today, Tina Maria what is the soul?

00:07:31: I wouldn't answer with a definition.

00:07:33: i would answer within experience.

00:07:35: for Me The Soul Is the part of us that Wants To Remember That Wants to Grow That Wanns To Experience That Wans To Express Itself Through Our Humanity.

00:07:48: Not some day, not later.

00:07:50: Not after enlightenment now right in this life Right at the moment Now Perhaps soul is much simpler than we think The same time much greater then we can comprehend.

00:08:10: perhaps We don't need to prove it not analyze It not understand it perhaps?

00:08:16: We are allowed begin living it Day by day step-by-step decision by decision.

00:08:23: And in the end, spirituality isn't about escaping life but about consciously engaging with it!

00:08:32: Before we end this episode I'd like to invite you to reflect on one thought today.

00:08:39: together.

00:08:40: We've questioned some ideas About The Soul.

00:08:43: Did You Notice How Many Images We Carry Within Us?

00:08:51: of what spirituality should be, what a conscious person should be.

00:08:56: How the soul should speak?

00:08:58: What growth should look like?

00:09:02: But if it isn't waiting for you to become perfect or know all answers and finally be spiritual enough... What if it's simply waiting for you to start listening to yourself?

00:09:26: Because the soul isn't a destination, It is relationship.

00:09:29: A relationship with your self With life and trust And truth!

00:09:36: With part of you that has always known That YOU are more than your roles Your expectations and story.

00:09:46: Today we have seen The soul does not always speak through grand visions.

00:09:52: It often speaks through what makes you feel alive, Through What moves You!

00:09:57: Through What calls YOU!

00:09:59: Through WHAT keeps knocking on your door even though you've long since tried to ignore it.

00:10:06: Make space for IT to REVEAL itself in YOUR DECISIONS IN YOUR RELATIONSHIPS In your work and everyday life because in the end The soul doesn't reveal itself in special moments, but how we live the ordinary moment.

00:10:51: Most of the time, it's been there for a long time.

00:10:56: In the last few episodes we talked about what this soul might be why your soul may have brought up.

00:11:04: plan with that for his life.

00:11:07: and This time is seven most common misconceptions That often distance us from.

00:11:15: let me repeat them for you.

00:11:17: Misconception number one The soul wants me to become perfect.

00:11:39: Number five-the soul is something outside of me.

00:11:44: Mis conception number six spiritual people have found their.

00:11:52: the soul gives me answers.

00:11:56: And there is one question that every person asked at some point, a question that connects us all regardless of age background or life path?

00:12:08: The Question Of Death.
