The Blues: Healing Your Depression - By Jodie Foster

Living with depression, sadness and grief puts quite a damper upon you. Knowing when to say, "Enough!" and to ask for help is the first step on the road to freedom and happiness.

Working with traditional counseling or even intuitive counseling can signal the turning point in your life. Intuitive counseling, unlike traditional counseling, offers a unique perspective into the energetic and emotional patterns that you have been holding. Allowing information to be delivered through the intuitive realm, the counselor has access to not only the mental and emotional layers of your energy body, but the physical and spiritual layers as well. It is a ‘wholistic’ approach to healing, meaning your entire being is supported and incorporated into your healing process.

I know that many people look for a psychic reading to give those answers about what steps to take next, or when will they meet Mr. Right. However these answers may make you feel in the immediate moment, has your relationship pattern change? Are you still going to attract the same sort of person the next time? Have you release the emotions that you have been carrying as a burden? Does the depression actually lift?

Changing the emotional patterns, releasing the pent up feelings and listening to your inner self are key to changing the overall dynamic. Even without the label of depression, underlying feeling of sadness, unhappiness and monotony can bring about a need for change.

Intuitive insight can be a powerful ally to have as a support system. Developing your own intuition is just as important. Knowing what to do with that intuition however, is the real key to your healing process.

Depression, whether it comes from suppressed grief, hurt or anger, is still a powerful energetic blockage to face alone. You require support, tools and techniques to relieve the pressure and allow the emotion to be released gently and constructively. Intuitive counseling provides you with a support system structure and techniques to work with. This process compliments other forms of depression treatment. Meditation, yoga, tai chi, journaling and other holistic modalities may be incorporated with the intuitive energy healing process.

No one deserves to live with sadness, grief, depression or unresolved anger. Life is too precious to waste on waiting to feel better. It’s up to you to take action and choose to begin your healing. It’s always wise to hire a guide to lead you through the forest of your fears and feelings. An intuitive counselor is a capable guide with a map to help you when you can’t see the forest for the trees.
