This week at I Am Here, we’re asking: How Can We Find Spirituality in the Modern World?

• How is modern spirituality shifting away from religion while still offering deep connection?
• What role does presence, awe, and humility play in shaping our sense of meaning?
• Can spirituality be a tool for social connection and building a better world?

In today’s world, spirituality often flows beyond the boundaries of tradition. It shows up in stillness, in everyday rituals, and in moments of connection—whether through mindfulness, gratitude, or time spent in nature.

Rather than something loud or structured, it becomes a quiet companion that brings meaning, healing, and a deeper sense of belonging.

What Are We Watching This Week?

We’re watching What Is the Point of Spirituality? – a reflective  video by The School of Life that gently asks whether there’s still something of value in the idea of ‘spirituality,’ even for the most rational minds.

It explores how the language of the spiritual—presence, gratitude, awe—can offer emotional and psychological depth, even outside religious belief.

Who Are We Quoting This Week?

“Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power.”

This quote reminds us that while technology evolves rapidly, we must also nurture the inner tools—compassion, awareness, connection—that help us use that power wisely.

At I Am Here, we believe spirituality can help restore balance by grounding us in what truly matters.
