What Does Spiritual Mean?

So many people are going through spiritual warfares; but when you tell them that they get mad.


"See that's the problem with you church people! You think everything is spiritual! Mental illness is a real thing! It has nothing to do with religion!!! You people should be ashamed saying someone doesn't have mental illness they just need God!"


😏 Who said any of that?


he statement is: People are going through spiritual warfares & don't realize what is going on with them.


he word spiritual has nothing to do with church or religion.


act is, we are breathing & alive because of our spiritual essence within our bodies.


The spirit can be disconnected from the body and/or sick.


EVERYTHING is spiritual.


Mental illness and physical illness are most certainly real...and they are both spiritual conditions as well.

💥Nurse Dei-ism: I never debate. I just share. If it doesn't resonate, then its not for you....🤷🏾‍♀️ yet. 😉


The issue is everybody is trying to own (or disown) the word spiritual.

Religious folks will say, "He was so spiritual so we knew he was supposed to preach."


Non-Religious folks will say, "He was so spiritual so we knew he was supposed to have a career in nature."


If we just look at the word spiritual plainly, instead of trying to own it for one side or the other, we will understand that it means a connection to self: a connection to our essence, our breath, the life within. 😉


The joining of our inner & outer world in harmony.


It's deeper than belief systems or lack thereof.

My momma would be so proud. I didn't use any incorrect English in this Nurse Dei-ism. 🤭😁
