- Spiritual well-being can be an amazing thing…
But is it stunting your personal growth?
This week, Psychotherapist Robert Masters and I talk about the dangers of spiritual bypassing, and why it’s so prevalent in today’s wellness culture.
To learn more about spiritual bypassing, and how you can avoid it, tune in.
Thank you for this subject. I'm giving a talk at our local UU Church about spiritual bypassing so this conversation filled in some of the bits I lacked or perhaps presented them differently.
let me know how it goes
If you are interested in checking it out (authentic spiritual practice) - I practice The Work of Byron Katie. she provides a method that combines deep shadow work with spiritual awakening. Often, when people ask her questions about her personal experience, she redirects them to do their work. I've been practicing for 3 years, it is the real deal. There's a very dedicated community of folks worldwide and we get in the shit together. From the outside, it can look like spiritual bypassing, especially when Byron Katie's quotes are taken out of context, but the actual work is life changing. The framework for this work is the Judge Your Neighbor Worksheet, where we get honest and petty about what we are actually thinking/believing in stressful situations.
Hey, Awesome! Thank you for sharing your experience with us!

Thank you for bringing up shadow work. I can clearly see how I used buddhist practices as bypass as I move through the body sensations associated with shadow. There is a feeling of disappointment in feeling this. I wanted to jump to believing that those practices were wrong or bad because of the feeling tone. I have recognized that it's just emotion that passes though.
Shadow work is the hardest thing I have ever done but it feels like I am becoming a whole person.
you're welcome!
Thank you for this video. I have been spiritually bypassing. I need a lot of money to solve my problems, not to be rich, but to repair damage to my home. I am 56 and went into a depression, because I want to be ready for a relationship but I am not. I feel stuck and dead in side my body, no motivation. I acknowledge the problem but things out of my control stand in my way, I fear homelessness. I am autistic. I have a friend who is a qualified psychotherapist but she has her own life, and it's limitsd how often she can see me. I feel like I was put here to sing and do art, yet have not realised my potential, and I fear I will never get chance, never be ready as the problem to solve involves the co-opetation of others which I might not get. So, while I akchowledge the problem, I feel stuck, and find it hard to get out of bed. I feel preyed upon and vulnerable. I acknowledge the problem, damage to my home, a flat, when I tried to tackle it, I got depressed so bad, I was dangerously underweight. Jayson, you were mentioned by Bernhard Guenther, and Laura Matsue. I feel heartbroken. Due to bad choices I feel my life is over.
Stay strong! Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us
@@JaysonGaddis You are very welcome. I just realised the comment I made were parts of me revealing things to me in an IFS way. Bernhard and Laura talk about parts work also.
Jayson, one day I would like to attend your school or train to become a coach. I LOVE your work
Wow, thank you! 🙏🏻
This is a bit like internal family systems by Dick Schwartz.
I would like to know what the gentleman can say to Queer men in and out of relationships and who may define relationships and sexuality differently that the mainstream culture. Some of the principals seem universal but other hetero-specfic. What Queer man have experienced and how they personally evolved sine childhood creates a different kind of energy for a man. There is a dynamic that is different sexually and personally for Queer men that I have noted is somewhat different from my heterosexual peers that I have met with in circles and workshops.
