Book excerpt: The Spirituality Trap is a straightforward, honest self-help book looking at the problems with spirituality as it is taught today. It also offers a more intuitive route on the spiritual journey, encouraging readers to face emotional issues, rather than deny them, and open themselves to experience love and compassion for themselves and others. The goal is to not lose oneself while on a spiritual journey. The Spirituality Trap covers many ways those who embrace spirituality are forced to deny their own emotions and conform to a group’s way of thinking and only acknowledging positive emotions. The suppression of negative emotions only magnifies them, since they are not acknowledged and dealt with, leaving little room for compassion for oneself and others. Anger, hurt, and grief should never be ignored, if true healing is to occur. Forgiveness leads to love, compassion, and happiness.
