Or a Spiritual Being Waking Up? With Dr Steven Golden","description":"In this episode of The Aura Room, host Archita sits down with Reverend and Doctor of Divinity Dr Steven Golden to unpack what spiritual enlightenment looks like in real life. Dr Steven explains why we are spiritual beings having a human experience, how the quantum field and energy work in daily life, and why your thoughts quietly script your reality. He breaks down simple practices to reprogram the subconscious mind through breath, focused affirmations and quiet inner inquiry. The conversation also tackles the confusion between religion and spirituality, the roots of world religions, and how to build a direct relationship with the divine source without getting lost in fear based narratives. If you want a grounded, practical entry point into spiritual awakening that fits into a busy modern life, this episode gives you clear tools instead of vague theory.\n\u00a0\nAbout the Guest\u00a0\u00a0\nDr Steven Golden is a Reverend and Doctor of Divinity who has spent years studying world religions, new thought philosophy and the science of mind. Trained through the Ernest Holmes Institute and ordained as a minister, he teaches people how to work with the conscious and subconscious mind, align with the quantum field and live from gratitude, love and joy. Through his book \u201cYour True Human Power\u201d and spiritual coaching, he helps people move from confusion and negativity into a clearer state of purpose and inner freedom.\n\u00a0\nKey Takeaways\u00a0\u00a0\n\u00a0\n\n\nYou are a spiritual being having a human experienceDr Steven frames spiritual enlightenment as recognising that the power and presence of the divine source lives within every human being, not as something separate or distant.\n\n\nThoughts are things and they shape your realityBuilding on Ernest Holmes and new thought philosophy, he explains that what you think about is what you bring about, which is why shifting from fear and negativity to love, joy and gratitude changes life outcomes.\n\n\nSimple daily breath work can rewire your mindSitting quietly, taking a deep breath, repeating internal statements like \u201cI am in the highest state of gratitude, I am perfect, I am happy, I am fearless, I am worthy,\u201d then exhaling slowly, repeated six times, can reset neural patterns and elevate your emotional state.\n\n\nMeditation is more practical than mysteriousFor Dr Steven, meditation is simply sitting in silence, breathing and asking inner questions, then listening to the internal voice which he understands as guidance from guardian angels or divine intelligence.\n\n\nSpirituality and religion are not the same thingHe notes that many world traditions started as spiritual foundations, while later structures added doctrines like externalised images of God and concepts such as hell. He invites listeners to focus on direct spiritual understanding rather than fear based belief.\n\n\nProtect your mental input the way you protect your bodyHe advises reducing exposure to negative news, media and stories that drag your energy down, because these also program the subconscious mind and can pull you away from a higher state of gratitude and peace.\n\n\nSelf love is a doorway to divine alignmentHis book and work emphasise that when you truly love yourself, you act as a mirror for the divine source and your external reality starts to shift in line with that inner state.\n\n\nConsistency follows results, not willpowerOnce people taste even small changes from these practices. better mood, better experiences, more ease. they naturally stay on the path because the benefits are real and measurable in daily life.\n\n\n\u00a0\nHow to Connect with Dr Steven Golden\u00a0\u00a0\n\n\nGet the book: https://www.myhumanpower.com/book (digital $1.99 for a limited time, paperback & hardback available on Amazon)\n\n\nUpcoming coaching & teaching sessions (launching soon): Stay updated via the book link above\n\n\nBackground: Reverend Dr. Steven Golden, Doctor of Divinity, New Thought minister, former Science of Mind practitioner, and North American director for Third Rock Adventures (Hi","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/70e61ea2-33d7-4014-8700-2c6f187692ec/ody3yy5wbmc.jpg"}
