“Like my evangelical friends, I believed that the Church and my relationship with God were purely spiritual realities. I wasn’t interested in what was caustically referred to as the “bells and smells” of Catholicism, and I certainly didn’t think I needed the sacraments.”
…
“I began to attend Mass daily. From day one I received the grace of certainty in Jesus’ true presence in the Eucharist, and I experienced the liturgy as a sublime taste of heaven. My tears flowed freely during Mass for several months as receiving the Eucharist became an intense, personal encounter with Jesus himself.”

Thank you for posting. The author is correct in that receiving the Eucharist and Sacrament of Confession are for our spiritual needs.
