If I'm a good person and I'm spiritual, then that should be my suit of armor against bad things happening.
Ever felt like your spiritual practices aren't quite hitting the mark? In this episode of 'One Hour AT A Time', host Mary Woods chats with Dr. Ingrid Mathieu about a concept known as 'spiritual bypass'. Coined by John Welwood, spiritual bypass is a tricky defense mechanism where individuals use spirituality to dodge their true feelings. It's like diving into yoga, meditation, or religion, but still feeling unfulfilled or even more lost. Dr.
Mathieu breaks down how to spot this behavior in yourself and offers tips on turning your spiritual practice into a tool for emotional sobriety rather than an escape route. Whether you're deep into your recovery journey or just curious about the intersection of spirituality and emotional health, this conversation is packed with relatable stories and practical advice. Tune in for an eye-opening discussion that might just change how you view your spiritual routine.
