what you Actually need to begin your spiritual journey

[@wickedwest2960]

I just started crying so hard making a pb&j because I hadn't had one in so long and it reminded me that my dad used to make me one for lunch everyday while I went through grade school and I made it using homemade jam my grandma sent me across the country for my birthday. It took me so long to realize how much value these things have and that I'm so immensely loved. I know this is so random but I wanted to tell someone and this just feels like such a safe space

[@hannahlacy255]

thankyou for sharing, this made me smile ❤️

[@th4ndii415]

[@nickb329]

This made my day 🥺💓 my dad did the same for me and pbjs have the same effect on me. Sending you even more love 💕

[@barbze5678]

Thank your for sharing.💚

[@AliMeetsWorld]

Aw thanks for being vulnerable! Made me smile reading this

[@Hannah-us2cu]

to begin your spiritual practice- - pray (to angels, guides etc) - listening to your body (form of meditation) -journaling eg. for manifestation -healing frequencies -breathwork -embody love in daily life -research what you’re interested in!

[@CharliePayne1]

It's so simple ✨

[@saliirivera1204]

thank you

[@PrincessTLG]

Don't forget to commune with nature and try it barefoot 💫

[@Nymphoffduty]

How do you pray to angels, like what do you say?

[@elleb2067]

What would be an interesting topic I'd like to see Hitomi discuss is the commodification of spirituality, particularly its aestheticism (beauty standards, body image, materialism). It's almost become trendy

[@TheRealShaiLamar]

THAT would be an amazing topic tbh, great idea Elle!!

[@user-gv5hm8po6b]

and how its literally just modified hinduism

[@danielleinfante5086]

my childhood trauma has also been my greatest teacher. its led me to pursue a professional masters degree in marriage and family therapy. i like to see myself as the "wounded healer." thank you for your words, always

[@lenemarie8432]

love this! wish you all the best

[@urghostfren]

i felt this so deeply, as my trauma has led me to pursue a career in criminal justice. i never thought id continue my education to begin with, yet life has presented me with unexpected gifts that im continuously grateful for. i wish you the best on your future endeavors, and pray for your safety, health, and well-being. stay positive ✨

[@maryannamae]

@@urghostfren hi!! i also followed a path into criminology after experiencing a crime. I want to work in a restorative justice setting and I'm pursuing a masters.

[@freshliving4199]

How did you overcome the anger and unforgiveness?

[@maryannamae]

@@freshliving4199 I met people who committed the same crimes as my abuser through internships in prisons. I realized that there is not a separate class of people who commit crimes and do bad things, but one whole humanity who is filled with people who do good things as well as bad things. The people in our lives we love are also capable of evil things, and everyone knows people like that. seeing offenders' humanity was most transformative for me.

[@Matt_Iifts]

Being barefoot in nature is so true. I feel like just doing that alone has tremendous ability to heal

[@Justme.195.]

Just Till you step into a bee 😅 That Happens always To me🙈

[@s.v484]

I totally get what you mean about how talking to nature wakes your inner child. I got out for a nature walk this morning making jokes with the squirrels and feeling grateful for all parts of nature surrounding me and accepting me. 🌞 🌚 ⛰🐿🪶

[@oliviamcdonald243]

Humans are hilarious little rebels!! Sometimes when I don’t feel good or don’t feel light, I know the things I can do to lift my spirit but I literally avoid doing those things or just don’t want to even tho I know it will take me out of this funk. It’s literally so funny to me!!! Does anyone else do this? Does anyone have an explanation for this? I’m glad that I see from the perspective of it being funny vs being hard on myself for it.

[@aliyahsakeena]

Yes sometimes I know what i could do to make me feel better but i cant bring myswlf to do it idk

[@sultrybabe08]

Yes yes yes! Feeling sad so I listen to sad music and don’t leave the bed lol or when I’m angry finding more things I don’t like to make me more angry! 😅

[@ellomate07]

I do this too. I think it's just habitual and feeling bad can be addicting! Eventually I can find enough grace within myself to break the cycle but I do wish I could better understand this.

[@rauhlinski4520]

I would guess it’s our pain body which is addicted to pain and therefore wants us to stay in this frequency, i would recommend reading the power of now by eckhart tolle if you haven’t already :) he talks about the pain body and how to overcome it

[@alanajade6936]

I completely do this too! I’ve learned though that when I do start engaging in the things I love again, it feels that much more special

[@ember2045]

I needed this I have been in a toxic cycle that I believed was my spiritual journey but it was more of dark night of the soul where I just keep self destroying to the brink of almost ending it all. But the universe is warning me to make the leap into my spirituality before it’s too late.

[@skatingislife6]

you've got this! If you're interested I would really recommend listening to or reading The Universe Has Your Back by Gabrielle Bernstein-- it helped me come out of a dark mindset and genuinely helped me transform my life

My heart, missed you so much. I know in my self that I'm the one who is responsible for healing me and creating sustainable systems in my daily routine. But to be honest, I really cannot go on without watching you. it feels like you help me alot in connecting with myself. and when I am not able to learn about you / from you, my life is a bit messy for couple of days. I am deeply glad for your existence and that you have a new upload. I hope to be better soon. btw I had the courage to get up early and brush my teeth just by seeing you in my notifications. I love you and your existence will always be one of my foundation in this Earthly journey.

I honestly feel the same way you feel about hitomi. She's like an older sister i never had, and im grateful for her excistence as much as everyone else. Sending love and kisses to all of you my co earth angels. 😊😊💗

[@tofferarvid6589]

I am a firm believer that anything you are able to heal from it is now your mission and obligation to help others heal from the same things because you have insight.... And often times we teach and heal without even trying, it's the power of connection....

[@noemielortie8988]

your energy is love u are worthy of all the space you're taking

[@enbykenz]

Hitomi could you please maybe do a video about dealing with being forced to be around extra difficult/triggering people? It seems like you have awesome roommates + work for yourself (roommates/guests and bosses/coworkers are common examples), but I’m sure you still have to deal with that sometimes. I’ve come a long way, but I still struggle around people who are really unbalanced and abusive and unwilling to grow.

[@matchagrl]

I just love this---your energy is like divine timing and the words you speak.

[@solindasol]

I was once again binge watching your old videos and here you are while I am writing in my manifestation journal 😭😭😭😭 I love you! Also, you sing so well. A true angel 💙

Love you Hitomi. Currently rewiring and realigning with my truth after falling back into a deep hole. I lost myself. You always encourage me to find myself again.

[@daisy-ir1we]

im so glad i came across this video, i have been having such a terrible few months and yesterday i had a really bad day and it made me realize i need to change in some way and start focusing on myself and allowing myself to improve. Thank you for helping me understand that you can use your childhood trauma and anxiety as your own teachers i am going to try to do this too

[@Angels-3xist]

In the interest of empowering people with sexual trauma and those who are close to people with trauma, I recommend the Shameless Sex podcast. If it’s physical trauma, check the recent episode with Dr. Nicole Eisenbrown. It may help whether you are a man or woman, but there is some very useful stuff in there especially for women. I know sexual trauma is not the theme of the video, but it’s a theme on the channel. Hoping Hitomi keeps hitting dealing with all types of trauma, growth and healing from all angles. Very few things are more needed in the world. This has always been true. Hopefully people like her will change the future.

[@namastetonihao]

We’ve been on a spiritual journey for the year, and it’s great to hear your perspective! ❤We are now teaching others as we grow as well.

[@elixirdelatierra]

Your definition of nature resonates so much with me. When I step in a forest or a beach or in my garden I feel instantly safe and grateful. Remembering that I belong to something so pure and generous has saved me so many times. Just in case you need to hear this too, you are pure nature in a human body

[@Jennifer-ih4de]

I’m so grateful to have found this video and your channel. I needed to come back and rewatch this video to fully accept the message I was meant to receive from you. I’m going through a season of loneliness and I didn’t realize until recently. I’m beginning my journey of spirituality and I now feel so at peace with myself that I realized that my so called “dislike” of people was simply fear of being close to others again because it would open me up to pain again. I’m so grateful to have found a community of others who have chosen to foster love after experiencing great pain. Thank you for sharing this!

[@lynnk-qj9cj]

When you were talking about praying to the trees and just talking to nature it was something I used to do ALOT when I was little I felt so connected to the earth. I would use the earth and a coping mechanism for someone to talk to I always felt like the earth was my friend or family someone I could always talk to.
