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.

How to Get Spiritual Gains (Using the Same Strategy for Getting Rich)
Most people approach inner work the same way they approach New Year’s resolutions—sporadically, emotionally, and only when life starts to fall apart.
In this episode of The Spiritual Perspective, I break down a simple truth that applies to money, fitness, creativity, and spiritual growth alike: progress is a volume game.
You don’t build wealth from one lucky break. You build it from steady, consistent inputs over time. Inner work works the same way. Occasional meditation, random gratitude, or practicing mindfulness only when you’re stressed doesn’t compound. What compounds is consistency.
We talk about what “inner work” actually means, why motivation is a poor strategy for long-term change, and why doing small practices every day is far more powerful than intense practices once in a while. I also share how daily meditation acts as a keystone habit—making it easier to sleep better, take less personally, and stay grounded when life inevitably throws curveballs.
If you’ve ever felt like your practice “isn’t working,” this episode will help you reframe what progress actually looks like—and how to build spiritual momentum without relying on inspiration or willpower.
This is a practical, no-nonsense conversation about how real transformation actually happens.
