Symptoms of the Soul 

By Mindy Caliguire - Tuesday, July 20, 2010

On Twitter this week, Team Soul Care (@SoulCare) has been RE-Discovering our soul care roots and today we’re focusing on the symptoms of the soul.

When your own soul has been neglected, what tends to emerge? We often hear:

  • Self-absorption
  • Shame
  • Apathy
  • Toxic Anger
  • Physical Fatigue
  • Isolation
  • Stronger Temptation to Sin
  • Drivenness
  • Feelings of Desperation
  • Panic
  • Insecurity
  • Callousness
  • A Judgmental Attitude
  • Cynicism
  • Lack of Desire for God.
On other days, when our souls are thriving from a deepening life with God, we find:
  • Love
  • Joy
  • Compassion
  • Giving and Receiving Grace
  • Generosity of Spirit
  • Peace
  • Ability to Trust
  • Discernment
  • Humility
  • Creativity
  • Vision
  • Balance
  • Focus
  • Energy for Work
