I'm the opposite of spiritual so the closest I've experienced is that euphoric feeling you get when you see unparalleled beauty in nature. Places like the Grand Canyon, Grand Tetons, Yukon, Alaska, volcano in Guatemala, and some waterfalls in Mexico are a few that spring to mind.
I have never been to any of those places. Itβs pretty cool that you were able to tap into that sensation so many times!
I think I rattle off the fancy places because they're the big ones that stick out in my mind, but I've also had that feeling just being out in nature close to home. Feeling the stillness of the forest can be just as powerful in your backyard.
