In this video, I share my personal experience with spiritual midlife crisis, something I hadn't known existed until I found myself deeply enveloped in it over the past eight years.
I share about the difficult and transformative phases of my journey, including moments of doubt, deep introspection, and the deconstruction of my previously held beliefs and practices. Through this challenging journey, I discovered crucial resources that guided me to understand the stages of faith development and the significance of the 'Wall', a pivotal point in one's spiritual midlife.
I emphasise the importance of integrating one's emotional and spiritual aspects and the crucial role of seeking support through spiritual direction and psychotherapy. This video is a reflection on the trials, insights, and growth I experienced, aiming to offer support and understanding to others navigating their spiritual midlife crisis.
