Some of the most spiritual places on Earth are the most heavily trafficked: Stonehenge, the Great Pyramids, the Grand Canyon, Mount Everest (yep, it's not just about the height for that mountain), the Rocky Mountains, Easter Island. And the list goes on and on.
But here's the big question: do you have to go to these unique places in order to have a spiritual experience?
And the big resounding answer is no.

Your life will not be altered in the way you are hoping, except maybe having your breath taken away, when you visit the Pyramids at Giza. You may have a phenomenal experience in your physicality, but your spiritual experience can be had right here, right now.

So, go ahead. Close your eyes. Open your heart. Feel whatever is all around you all the time. You can feel, see, hear and do whatever it is you want to do wherever you are, everywhere you go.
meditative practice for opening to this kind of experience:
Close your eyes. Breathe deeply from between your chest and your rib cage. Feel your lungs expanding and contracting, opening and offering themselves to the Great Creator. Breathe in. Breathe out. And again. Breathe in, breathe out. Slowly. Allow yourself to feel the room around you. Feel it pulsing with your own energy as the two of you become one pulsating energy, beating in time with your heart. Feel the rhythm. Beat, beat, beat. Bah-bump, bah-bump, bah-bump. Take in another long, deep breath, exhaling slowly allowing yourself to expand in your awareness as the energy exhales your lungs. Breathe. Relax.
Begin to see the place you have been desiring. Either call it silently by its name or see an image or picture in your head. It doesn't matter if it's a physical image of somewhere you've already been or only something you've seen in a movie or a magazine. Just focus your attention and awareness to the place of your desired connectedness.
Breathe. Center yourself by keeping your feet firmly planted on the ground where you are currently and call forth the energy of the place you desire to experience. Call it into your presence. Feel the energy swirl around you. Allow it to fill and enter the room as if an old friend has arrived. Allow it to sit and be in your presence. Feel it. Smell it. Taste it. Whatever comes to you is okay. There is no bad experience here. Whatever you are feeling, experiencing, doing is absolutely fine. Take another deep breathe.
Ask the Angels to come forward from the space and enter your experience. Allow them to then fill your room and come into your presence fully. Allow them into your space and your experience. Breathe in their essence. Fill yourself with how they feel, how they seem, what they are. What are you feeling? Do you smell something? Do you taste something? Do you feel an arm or hand or wing on your shoulder? Is it getting warm or cold? Are you tingling?
Allow yourself to feel whatever experience is coming to you. They are there. Trust that. Trust that they are with you in this experience. And then ask them for more. Ask them to shower you with a message from the place you desire to experience. Ask them to help you know it better or understand its purpose or reasoning for being. Ask them to glow the energy of that abundant place into your experience.
And then sit and be still.
Just feel.
Take it in.
And when you are ready, thank the Angels for coming and the energy of that place for existing in your space. Ask them anything else you may need to ask or let them know you wish to exchange again some time later. Breathe in and breathe out and allow yourself to fill your own essence back into the room as the Angels and the space return to their own energy.
Breathe. Bring yourself back into only your own energy. Wiggle your toes, stretch your arms, smile. Feel your body hugging you. Express some gratitude to yourself for your accomplishment at connecting, even if you are unsure. Just know that it was there and each time will get stronger and more clear.
Now, just breathe. And feel, see, hear and do, everywhere you go.
