We live in a time where our environment is constantly changing and our society is living in survival mode. When stressed, our thinking mind acts with speed instead of depth, trying to get things done instead of acting intentionally. There is no time for consideration, discernment and deeper thinking.

Listen in to learn some tips and ideas about how you can be more functional in your life.  Relevant links:  RAIN technique meditationGuided meditation: Using being for healing Free workshops Silent Retreat dates Chapter markers:  Increasing accessibility to functional healing + non-dual spiritual oneness:www.functionalspirituality.com Free resources:Newsletter sign-up: A monthly update for me on new offers and the energy of the month.Community meditation:Join the Functional Spirituality Group and enjoy a free resource for meditators and yogis to connect to and enjoy a like-minded community.Free workshop: Healing complex trauma:A free workshop on how to optimize your spiritual practice and your daily life by understanding complex trauma. Connect on SocialsWhere you can hear from us in daily lifePersonal account: @avairani_  Functional Spirituality: @functionalspirituality Studio: @spandaschool
