About

The Mission
Urban Spiritual is a blog dedicated to illuminating, instigating, and encouraging introspective practice, exploration, and conversation.

Why “Urban Spiritual”?
Urban because it was founded in New York City where, like most cities, the fast pace makes it very easy to lose contact with one’s inner-being. And Spiritual because a spiritual is a song, traditionally religious in nature (though for our purposes we’ll say introspective), deeply tied to one’s values, pain, joy, hope – it can be a prayer or a protest, a story or a stark reality.
