In Part 1, we explored the first ten subtle ways spiritual bypassing can show up in everyday life - often disguised as wisdom, strength, or even inner peace. But real emotional mastery isnât about avoiding pain. Itâs about being fully present with it, even when itâs uncomfortable.
Here are ten more ways you might be bypassing your emotional truth without realising it:
11. Judging others for being âlow vibeâ instead of seeing your own projections
Itâs easy to dismiss someone as negative, toxic...
Spiritual bypassing is often invisible on the surface. It disguises itself as maturity, grace, or wisdom. But underneath, it's often just avoidance dressed in spiritual language.
Many of us fall into it without realising. And while it might feel like protection, over time it erodes our emotional wellness and disconnects us from the real work of healing.
Here are the first ten subtle ways you might be spiritually bypassing in your day-to-day life:
1. Using âEverything happens for a reasonâ to ...
Most people think theyâre following their intuition. But what if what they call âintuitionâ is actually a nervous system reaction - one rooted in past wounds rather than present wisdom?
Weâve all had those moments. A strong feeling hits, and we assume itâs a warning, a sign, an inner knowing. But hereâs the problem: intuition is not fear, and fear is not intuition. The nervous system, if left unchecked, will push you into decisions you donât consciously want to makeâbecause it recognises its pa...
In Part 1, we celebrated the power of asking questions as a way to move beyond a simple, black-and-white view of life. Yet, even with all the benefits of asking questions, many of us hesitate to challenge what is presented to us. In this second part, I explore why so many of us prefer the comfort of familiar answers instead of facing the uncertainty that comes with deeper questioning. (Check out part 1 if you have not read it yet)
The Pull of What Is Familiar
For many people, there is a strong...
In a world that often forces us to see things in black and white, I have come to value the many shades of grey that truly define life. Simple answers may give us comfort and a sense of certainty, but they can also trap us in a narrow view that misses the full richness of our experiences. Only by continuously questioning our assumptions can we begin to explore the wide range of subtle details and hidden truths that surround us.
From an early a...
Weâve all been thereâleft wondering why someone pulled away, why a relationship changed, or why someone didnât show up in the way we had hoped. Itâs human nature to search for answers, to try and make sense of it all. But in that search, we often lose ourselves in endless loops of overthinking, carrying the weight of things we were never meant to hold. The truth is, we canât control what others do. Real peace begins when we stop trying to manage whatâs outside our hands and focus on how we respo...
We all have moments when we feel fragmentedâpulled in different directions by our thoughts, emotions, and physical needs. The journey of self-integration is about bringing these parts of ourselves into harmony, creating a deep sense of peace, stability, and self-acceptance. As someone who has always lived a holistic life and walked the path of shadow work and depth psychology, Iâve learnt that integration is not a quick fix. Itâs a practiceâa series of small but powerful steps that lead to lasti...
For years, the internet has been flooded with quick-fix manifestation techniquesâaffirmations, vision boards, scripting under the full moon. And yet, people still wonder: Why isnât it working for me? The truth is, what you havenât healed is blocking your manifestationsâand 2025 is the year to stop bypassing the deep work.
Unhealed Trauma is Holding You Back
One of the biggest misconceptions about manifestation is that you can âthinkâ your way into a new reality while ignoring the emotional bag...
Life often nudges us towards decisions we know we need to make, yet fear can hold us back. Whether itâs leaving a draining situation, starting something new, or setting a firm boundary, unresolved choices can weigh heavily on both the mind and body. What if making those bold decisions, even when they feel scary, is exactly what your nervous system needs to feel calm and balanced?
In this article, weâll look at how stepping into the decisions youâve been avoiding can ease tension in your mind an...
Many people turn to spiritual practices in times of emotional pain, hoping to find healing and peace. Itâs a natural responseâafter all, spirituality offers comfort and connection to something greater than ourselves.
But does spiritual practice alone heal emotional wounds? Can meditation, prayer, chanting, or other sacred rituals replace the hard work of emotional healing?
This question often arises from the confusion between emotional intelligence (EQ) and spiritual intelligence (SQ). While ...
