2. Try to make a list of some things have that have made you feel very emotional (in a good kind of way) and/or strongly connected to someone or something. Pay special attention to the ones that have worked that way for you multiple or many times. Pick 1-3 of these things and find a way to change it and make it related to your spirit more than your external experiences. Then try those things as a regular practice—not just in the sense of regularity, but also in the sense of something you do to progress or develop in something. And see what happens.
For instance, I came from a very, very “non meta” tradition in the sense that non-Christian supernatural things were not tolerated. But there were still things that felt a little extra special to me. Singing, painting, and cooking were good examples. So I found ways to include my spirits in those activities. Like I started painting them before I even felt like I could get a solid idea of what they “looked like.” And slowly I came to see them better—and not just the ones I painted.
3. Whatever things you decide to practice to develop your spirit and its senses, pay attention to how they feel for you. Not in the sense of looking FOR something so much as looking AT something. Less trying to achieve and more observing what happens inside yourself.
