*Feeling the need to be alone ?

Once you begin opening up to a more spiritual path, you may feel the need to spend much more of your time alone. You may find yourself wanting more space, quiet time, and less chaos, noise and distraction.

This, when done in healthy moderation, is perfectly normal and not only is it normal it is usually necessary, in order to look with in and make the changes we desire and learn to heal and release what needs to be released. It can be very difficult to figure out who you truly are when everything around you is so busy, demanding or if there is too much chaos.

This increased desire to be alone can feel very strong and you may wonder why you are somewhat withdrawn from your normal activities. When we become ''more'' spiritual, we understand there is a greater need to have the time alone in order to receive the answers we need, so we are able to move out of our past experiences and into the now, to better manifest our future.

Once in the now, we have to decide what parts of ourselves that need to be released or no longer serve any purpose to us. This is hard work and some decisions will be difficult to make, and making the changes can be more challenging still.

Self reflection is key here and obtaining an honest and deep self evaluation can take time, and quiet alone time is the best way to do so, usually the only way. Take the time you need to be with yourself, or at least spend a few minutes in meditation as often as possible. Go to bed early and just lay there being with yourself and see what happens. Get a book to write, doodle or draw in. Anything that allows the space for you to be quiet with yourself  letting the guidance, messages, energy shifts and ideas come through.

Carry no guilt for this desire to be with only yourself, and do not expect others to understand because unless they on the spiritual path, they will not know this is all part of the process and may try and convince you that there is something wrong with you, that you are depressed or avoiding life, 

They may be concerned as you are not acting your normal self. Just reassure anyone who is concerned about you, that you are just fine and will reach out if need be and for anyone who is giving you a hard time for taking this self reflection time, bless them and carry on because this is YOUR journey not theirs and only you will bear the challenges of not taking this time to evolve and connect with your higher self. Its totally worth the effort.

Feeling the need to spend more time alone is actually a big sign that you are on the right path, as being alone gives you the ability to look within and within is where you need to be because everything is there, all the answers come within you, when you allow the guidance to come through. 

And remember you are actually never alone. You are always surround by divine love and support. You are part of the whole and connected to everything.
