Explanation:

4Learn to Forgive

"Forgiveness is crucial for spiritual growth," explains Visa Shanmugam, a mindset and empowerment coach in Maryland. "Whether you realize it or not, we hold onto so much trauma from as recently as yesterday (when someone was rude to you at the checkout counter), all the way back to your oldest childhood memory (when kids called you weird)." To assist in the process of letting go, Shanmugam suggests that you "write a forgiveness list" that includes all of the people who you believe have wronged you, and then just decide to "forgive them." You have the power to do it!

5Practice Patience

You don't have to go out and buy a bunch of new things like books, salt lamps, and essential oils in order to become more spiritual. It's more about taking advantage of "the opportunities that are all around you," explains J. A. Plosker, MA, JD, MSW, LMSW, a mindfulness speaker and author of The Nobody Bible: Uncovering the Simple Wisdom in Ordinary Life. For instance, on those days when traffic is terrible, Plosker says that you can use that to your advantage to "commit to being more patient." These small steps that you take every day "can lighten your spirit and create more inner peace."

6Always Be Truthful

"In order to achieve a higher state of spirituality, the aura needs to be as clean as possible," says Kadeem Alston-Roman, a spiritual advisor and co-founder of Full Force Wellness. "When someone lies, it is clairvoyantly seen that gray clouds emanate from their aura," he says. If you want to keep your aura clear so that light can shine through, then make sure that you're always telling the truth. (And yes, little white lies do count.)

7Start a Gratitude Journal

"What we focus on is what we will manifest in our lives," explains Beepat. "Keeping a gratitude journal gives us time to reflect on the events of the day and remember with happiness the things, big and small, that made us smile."

8Listen to Your Instincts

Spiritual people know about the value of using their guts to make informed and intuitive decisions. "Our gut is extremely accurate at telling us what feels good and what doesn't—but most often, we ignore it and ask our brain to make the decision instead," says Shanmugam. "Take more opportunities to listen and follow what your gut tells you to do."

9Laugh Often

Spirituality and contentedness tend to go hand-in-hand, which is why laughing more often is one of the best ways to transform yourself into a more metaphysical human being. "Laughing carries an energy of joy, silliness, playfulness, happiness, and fun," explains Pirtle in 365 Days of Happiness. "When you laugh, you immediately shift to be and live in a 'high for life' frequency—and with that, you shift everything and everyone around you, too. If you choose to make laughing your default reaction, no matter what is happening for you, you will experience everything and everyone through your laughing filter." Need something to laugh at?

10Eliminate Envy

Spirituality and selfishness do not mesh well. In order to become one with the world, you first need to "work on congratulating people on their successes instead of being envious," says Plosker. Envy is a normal human emotion, but you must fight to transform this feeling into something positive and kind if you want to be a more spiritual person.

11Find Something to Believe in

"Faith in yourself and in something higher than yourself is a game changer," says Schneider. Even if you aren't religious, you can still aim to connect to the universe in a way that strengthens your spirituality and, more importantly, your relationship with yourself.

12Find a Spiritual Community—And Join It

"The juice of the spiritual berry, in my opinion, comes from being around like-minded company," says Beepat. Surrounding yourself with others who are on a spiritual journey—whether that's in person at a wellness center or online in a Facebook group—gives you a place to "hang out, learn, chill, and ask questions."

13Be Open to New Experiences

Closing yourself off to new experiences and emotions is going to make your journey toward spirituality incredibly difficult. Instead of being closed-minded and stubborn, you should "start [each] new day by setting the intention to be open and [to] receive all inspirations coming your way," writes Pirtle.
