Navigating Divorce with Spirituality: A Conversation with Ursula Smith, Esq.
Ursula Smith, Esq. and Melissa Farag, Mediator and Founder of High Vibe Mediation, LLC
This week, I am joined on the High Vibe Divorce podcast by Virginia family law attorney Ursula Smith, of Azimuth Divorce, PLLC. In the episode, “18 - Divorce and Loss as a Spiritual Journey,” Ursula and I delve into a transformative conversation about divorce and spirituality.
Ursula is an inspiring divorce attorney who melds legal expertise with spiritual guidance. Ursula opens up about her journey from military service to spiritual awakening, offering profound insights into how spirituality and holistic practices can revolutionize the divorce experience.
The Power of Affirmation. We kick off the discussion with an empowering affirmation from Gabrielle Bernstein's Spirit Junkie deck: "There's no such thing as mistake. Everything happens in divine order. I am being guided to learn and grow." This serves as a reminder that what seems like a mistake is often a stepping stone to personal growth and self-discovery, especially during a divorce.
Meeting of Minds: Instagram Connection. Ursula and I connected on Instagram, thanks to high vibrational content on spirituality, divorce, and wellness. This digital meeting of minds emphasized the power of aligning with like-minded individuals who can guide you through life’s challenges holistically.
From Military to Mediation. Ursula shares her fascinating journey from military service and civil litigation to embracing family law, fueled by a spiritual awakening during her own divorce. Facing a "dark night of the soul," Ursula transformed her career, opening a law firm focused on spiritual and emotional healing during divorce.
Holistic Divorce Professionals: A Rising Trend. In today's evolving legal landscape, finding divorce professionals who look beyond the legalities to support your holistic well-being is crucial. Ursula emphasizes the importance of selecting a mediator or attorney who resonates with your spiritual path and life goals, creating a space for collaboration and positive growth.
The Spiritual Awakening Journey. Ursula's profound spiritual journey involved significant losses, such as her mother's passing, during her divorce. She turned to spiritual practices, including psychic mediumship and Akashic Records readings, to navigate her pain and uncover deeper soul connections.
Embracing Intuition and Spiritual Gifts. We explore various spiritual modalities Ursula engaged with, such as pendulum use for intuitive guidance and quantum healing hypnosis, where she learned about past lives that shed light on her present. This exploration helped Ursula connect to her higher self and develop her spiritual gifts.
Healing Techniques and Lifestyle Choices. Grounding exercises, walking barefoot in nature, and mindful practices like meditation play essential roles in raising one's vibrational frequency and healing. Ursula also speaks to the importance of making lifestyle changes, such as reducing alcohol consumption, to align with one's spiritual path.-
Navigating Divorce: Intuition and Authenticity. Divorce often involves intense personal scrutiny and external judgment. Ursula and I discuss the validity of trusting your intuition, even when external circumstances appear ‘normal’. Authenticity in personal relationships is fundamental for long-term health and happiness.
Conclusion: Choose Positivity and Gratitude. Concluding with a powerful message, Ursula reminds us that our thoughts manifest our reality. Every day, choose positivity, gratitude, and joy, even in the face of challenges. Your life’s beauty unfolds from choosing happiness and living with gratitude in your heart.
