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.

The Secret to Being 100% Consistent with Your Wellness Habits
Most people think their problem with wellness habits is a lack of discipline. They assume they just need to try harder, be more focused, or finally “get serious.” But if that were true, discipline would have worked by now.
In this episode, I challenge the idea that discipline is the missing piece. I explain why forcing yourself to stay consistent often backfires—and how that same effort is what creates resistance, burnout, and the feeling of constantly falling off track. The issue isn’t that you’re lazy or undisciplined. It’s that you’re fighting your own mind.
You’ll hear a different way to think about consistency, one that doesn’t rely on willpower or self-control. We’ll talk about why social media quietly sabotages progress, why doing less can create more lasting change, and how adopting a slower, more patient approach leads to habits that actually stick.
If you’ve ever felt frustrated with yourself for not being “disciplined enough,” this conversation will help you see that nothing is wrong with you—and that real, sustainable change is much simpler than you’ve been told.
