The Spiritual Perspective
Ever wonder what the spiritual perspective is on genocide? On cheating? On getting back with your ex? On toxic people?
If so, this is your channel.
You identify as spiritual — but you’ve still got questions about how to show up in life’s messiest, most nuanced situations.
And you don’t have time for fluffy, feel-good answers that don’t hold up in the real world.
This is where you’ll find a grounded spiritual take on life’s hardest questions.
I’m Light Watkins — keynote speaker, author, and longtime meditation teacher — and every week, I share short, no-BS videos that help you zoom out, tune in, and reframe what you’re going through.
If you’re tired of surface-level advice and ready to go deeper, join me every Monday and Thursday for new episodes of The Spiritual Perspective.
Your next breakthrough might be one perspective shift away.

From the Archive: The Spiritual Perspective on Getting Back Together with Your Ex
We’ve all been there…
It’s the heat of the moment. Tempers are flying high. Raw honesty gets expressed.
Things are said that you’ve been wanting to say for a while. Maybe your feelings get hurt. And then, somebody says it:
This isn’t working. We’ve tried. But I’m done! I think we should break up.
And then, after some time passes, what happens?
Well, if you’re an aware, thoughtful, spiritually-minded person – which I’m assuming, if you’re subscribed to this newsletter, you at least aspire to be – then you start reflecting.
You start wondering, did I over-react? Did they over-react?
Was it just a big misunderstanding? Are you actually meant to be together? Or not?
There are so many questions. So many considerations. But…
Are you even asking the right questions, so that you can arrive at the right conclusion for you?
Because that will make all the difference in whether you decide that it’s best to give it one more go, versus realizing that it’s beyond time to go your separate ways...
That’s the subject of this week’s Spiritual Perspective. To hear which considerations you want to make before deciding to get back together, listen to this episode.
