Depression

Depression is an epidemic in this country. A large portion of the population has either been on one or more antidepressant drugs at one time in their lives. Many people have been on these drugs for years. The original premise for the use of these drugs was to provide a temporary remedy for depression by allowing the natural bodily functions to recover. The intent was to then come off these drugs and to allow the body to resume it's natural balance. This doesn't seem to be the protocol today.

There are surely many causes for the syndrome called depression. I would like to address one possibility. In my experience, depression is often caused by the distortion and inefficient energy flow through the root and sacral chakras. When one or both of these centers are compromised, a person is very apt to experience a constant state of fear. These centers are responsible for the feelings of being grounded and balanced in life. In an attempt to minimize the feeling of fear, they often unknowingly and unconsciously contract these chakras to an even greater extent. The effort seems to work because they momentarily lose awareness of the fear but the actual cause of the fear is now greater. This strategy can only be repeated so many times before they are unable to contract these energy centers any further. At this point a sense of panic often results. They may have no other coping skills that they trust. At this point antidepressants may be employed with some temporary effect but the underlying energetic deficiency still remains.
Chakra Energization and Balancing has proved to be a valuable tool in restoring this energy and dissipating the fear that existed. I have witnessed this transformation many times over the years and the results have been sustained by learning new skills of dealing with the everyday obstacles of life.
If you or someone you love struggles with depression and attempts to find a solution have escaped you, this approach may hold promise for you.

  1. Really wonderful blog. One of the main jet lag symptoms is that you could experience is confusion and fuzziness. This could make you less aware of your surroundings, which could cause safety issues in an unfamiliar location.
