3 Steps Towards Spiritual Enlightenment In The Akashic Age

Spiritual enlightenment is something many of us seek on the spiritual journey — but what does it really mean?

What Is Spiritual Enlightenment, And How Can We Move Towards It?

For me, spiritual enlightenment is a process of working on ourselves. It often involves actions and inner shifts that lead to:

• increased self-awareness
• release of traumatized energy from the body and energy field
• greater abundance and fulfillment
• more clarity in decision-making.

What Spiritual Enlightenment Is Not

If we keep our spiritual work separate from our everyday thoughts, behaviors, and emotions, very little growth actually happens.

For years, I lived two lives.

During the week, I wore a suit, carried a briefcase, and worked as a computer trainer. On weekends, I changed into my spiritual T-shirt and attended unusual, mind-expanding workshops.

I never told my colleagues what I was exploring, and truthfully, I didn’t always know why I was searching for spiritual enlightenment myself. Something inside me was guiding me, even before I had the awareness or the language to describe what I was doing.

Looking back, I also wasn’t embodying most of what I was learning. I absorbed teachings but didn’t integrate them. I listened to brilliant advice but didn’t practice it.

I was trying to align the inner and the outer, but I wasn’t quite ready for embodiment.

This is a stage of the spiritual journey — but it isn’t spiritual enlightenment.

A shaman I met in Glastonbury once called this being a “spiritual tart,” bouncing from workshop to workshop looking for answers. I had to laugh because that was absolutely me at the time.

When Spiritual Enlightenment Actually Arrives

At a certain point on the path, something clicks. A piece of information, a teaching, or an energetic experience suddenly illuminates everything.

One of my early examples was a Kryon gathering with Lee Carroll.

I had no idea he was a channel — I actually went to the event to learn from Peggy Phoenix Dubro and her EMF Balancing Technique.

On the first day, before any of the energy training, Lee gave a talk. I thought it would simply be an interesting addition to my trip. Instead, it changed my life.

During the channeling, several energetic phenomena happened, but one stood out:

I discovered my Higher Self in a new way —
the part of us that communicates Soul-level truths.

From that experience, I learned:

• My Higher Self wanted to relay information
• I needed to learn how to listen to it
• and, most importantly, learning to act on its messages is what creates actual change.

That moment was a profound form of spiritual enlightenment — and I hadn’t even been looking for it.

Nobody Said Spiritual Enlightenment Was Easy – The Law of One

So how do we know when we’re receiving spiritual enlightenment?

Sometimes it arrives unexpectedly, as it did for me. Sometimes it comes through intention, when we want to repeat a past insight, understand a particular issue, or grow in a specific area.

More recently, I’ve been studying The Law of One, especially The Ra Contact: Teaching the Law of One: Volume 1. These texts are intense, but they resonate deeply, offering truths that can be applied in everyday life. Another sign that working with channeled material is part of my path, something my Higher Self has been nudging me toward for years.

Three Steps to Support Your Spiritual Enlightenment

1. Seek The Love In The Moment (Law of One)

Even when life feels brutal, frustrating, or overwhelming, returning to the present moment helps us reconnect with love.

This might mean recognizing a toxic relationship. It might mean realizing a behavior needs to change — and choosing to change it. It might mean facing old trauma rather than avoiding it.

This post isn’t called “3 easy steps to spiritual enlightenment” for a reason. The path is beautiful, but it isn’t always comfortable.

2. Retrieve Wasted Energy From Old Traumas

Old traumas keep us stuck in the past. They drain our energy and dim our clarity.

A powerful step on the spiritual enlightenment journey is learning to reclaim that energy.

You can do this through:

• journaling
• visualization
• somatic awareness
• or simply revisiting an old memory and imagining yourself pulling your energy out of it

You keep the wisdom from the trauma, not the weight.

If the trauma is deep or triggering, always work with a therapist or qualified guide.

Transgenerational trauma is real, and many of us are here to help release it — not just for ourselves, but for future generations.

3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 Consistently For a Month

Consistency creates transformation.

If you:

• seek love in each moment
• and retrieve wasted energy from old trauma…

for a month, the shift is unmistakable. If it works for you, keep going.

Spiritual Enlightenment Isn’t Always Gentle — But It’s Always Real

It’s fun to attend spiritual workshops and learn new things. I still enjoy them.

But true spiritual enlightenment often arrives when we’re not expecting it — when our Higher Self has a plan for us that we don’t yet see.

Whether you feel ready or not, the path to spiritual enlightenment will meet you exactly where you are.
