The important thing to comprehending the link between all these areas of our self is the energy body, the subtle energy system, the missing link to health, happiness and freedom, on all levels, a genuine existing part of us thats totally ignored and unaccepted as reality in conventional approaches to mental health, but, the energy body, the spirit person, a persons spirit is paramount to health on all levels.
The Mental Health Foundation has defined a mentally healthy individual as you who are able to:
Develop emotionally, creatively, intellectually and spiritually
Initiate develop and sustain satisfying personal relationships
Face problems, resolve and grow from them
Be confident and assertive
Be familiar with others and empathize with them
Use and enjoy solitude
Play and have fun
Laugh at themselves and the world
Just how did we develop mental health problems and problems?
Lets explore this from the point of view from the human energy system, a persons spirit.
We have an energy body. We cant view it, though some technologies do allow us to see energy fields of living things. Some talk about the aura, chakras, and meridians for energy to flow within the energy body. Many successful healing therapies are based on the existence of the energy system and restoring flow when it is blocked. Which is paramount, finding blockage and restoring flow within the energy system.
So how will it get blocked to begin with? Ah well, thats life. Our energy product is processing life events, people, nature, things in through and out of the energy system, in the same way because the physical body processes food in through and out. We eat, digest, circulate, metabolize, get energy from, and are regenerated by, then get rid of the food that people eat. Thats in through and out, changing us in the process. When things are flowing well, we body processes are healthy. As we get blockage in any are problems and symptoms begin to develop e.g. indigestion, colon problems, liver problems, arteries, lymph. It is all about circulation and getting the nutrients to the right parts. Next the body understands how to eat well.
So how does flow and nutrition relate to mental health?
We process the energies of life in the same manner, in through and out. We compare this to acceptance, understanding, compassion, learning, releasing, forgiving, transformation and evolution, and delight and enjoyment in the process. All our positive emotional experiences we can now see because the flow of the energy of life through our energy system. It seamless comfort. Positive emotions arise from flow of these energies of life through our energy system and nutrition is the learning, the feeling good factor, the growth, the transformation we get from that aspect of life. This is healthy flow. This is actually the way we are designed, just as the body is made to eat well. This will be our natural starting state, until life happened!
What are blockages in the Energy Body?
So, as we can get blockage in the physical body, we obtain blockage within the energy body. For instance, we avoid because we cant handle something, we cannot accept, we resist, or we hurt if we do accept, we hold on, we dont understand well, we do not make out the print, we cant forgive and we feel below par. They are our painful emotions and we feel this in the body too.
In fact, where were feeling it in the body is how the power is stuck.
Events of Life Stuck in Processing
Then when we are not for the reason that state of mental health that we defined above, its because something happened to us, an event that we processed through our energy system, but it got stuck along the way. Maybe it was too large to deal with for a young energy system. So there it stayed, that energy forever connected to the thought or memory of this event, held in the power body, at the location that we can feel, when we recall it. And life continues to happen, events upon events, stored causing further blockage and behaviors that arise from all of these blockages because somewhere along the way, the support wasnt there to help that individual process and release those events in life. So growth and learning didnt happen. Nourishment from the spirit to create confidence and strength didnt happen.
Furthermore a blocked energy system, has reduced capability to process future events, coping ability is impaired. We emotionally react. Eventually the discomfort of handling life is really so great that disconnection is required, numbing out the feelings and continuing pressure results in depression.
Its all regulated Energy and Only Energy
Its all regulated a kind of energy indigestion, energy constipation, and energetic injury of some type.
Understanding this is really very good news.
Since we have energy release approaches to the growing field of energy psychology, such as EFT, EmoTrance, TAT and more, we can locate and release the blockage, restore the flow, and heal the energy system. Once more in flow, the state of health returns. We feel relaxed and free, we have seen clearly from a new perspective, we have new resources we didnt have before for this situation. We have learned and grown. We are to mental emotional and spiritual health. We can do that for those life events that got stuck in processing with the energy system and these techniques let us release the power without having to discuss these events again and again.
So, energy healing, also called healing the spirit, is a key to facilitating mental healing.
Why Seriously a Retreat for Mental Healing?
By the time one is depressed, suffering chronic anxiety, has low confidence and self esteem, is numb or disconnected, there is a lot of life events stored in the energy system that need releasing.
A number of therapy sessions are recommend, using EFT or EmoTrance or TAT and theres unequivocal evidence gathered over many years from thousands of people of the effectiveness of those strategies to create mental healing and change. This can be a challenge to people who follow more conventional talk therapies and medication approaches, and so we discover resistance from that sector, but thankfully, not from everyone.
A healing retreat is the perfect opportunity to spend some time inside a supportive environment and get a number of healing sessions, tuning in to key events and releasing them, creating increasing flow within, increasing relaxation, lightness and clarity. It is a chance to make some real progress in creating change and forward movement, improvements in mental health.
Other research has shown nutrition also has an effect on our mental health. Just how much sugar and delicate foods we eat wreak havoc with this glucose levels and moods. The possible lack of specific nutrients in our diet has been shown to lead to vital processes not working well. The brain is an organ that requires food nearly as much as the remainder of the body. When we are in a low mental state, we quite often do not take worry about our diet.
You can easily comprehend the advantages of combining energy healing with optimum nutritional support for mental healing. A mind body spirit detox, cleansing out the old, restoring flow and putting in optimum fuel when it comes to food as well as in terms of what our spirit eats: nature, life, people, relationships, love.
So in fact, by a complete mind body spirit detox healing retreat might be a great way to help mental healing or form a brand new kind of mental health retreat.
