Mystical ADD

Throughout my journey into mysticism, it has been brought to my attention millions of times how often my focus is pulled away from feeling centered. That is simply just world we live in. It's important to realize that distractions are normal so that we can learn how to refocus. It seems that the closer we get to having a clear breakthrough or epiphany, the distractions become louder. I call this phenomenon "Spiritual ADD." This is not referring to the medical diagnosis often given to unfocused children, rather this a spiritual diagnosis that stands for Addiction, Drama, Distraction. We often face one or all of these three issues as we get closer to our goals, dreams, and connection to our Creator. When you are able to realize what is really going on, you can "medicate" the ADD with meditation. Meditation seems to be the easiest, least expensive, and most effective way to draw your focus back onto your spiritual journey and detach from outer distractions. Realizing that the ADD is put before you on your path to stop and detour you, you can easily not take it as seriously and move through it with grace and ease. This is the work of the mystic as she travels fearlessly forward towards her calling. Refocus each time. Breathe. Remember who you are and WHO is calling you and you'll be back on track before you know it. Sending you love always.
