Breaking Through The Darkness

Description Share with your friends!XFacebookLinkedInEmailWhatsAppPinterestThis book is for anyone who feels anxious, stressed, unhappy or depressed as well as professionals working in the mental health field. It is a simple, practical, self-help guide to dealing with depression and other negative states of mind from a spiritual perspective. Many books and experts focus on the physical, mental and emotional aspects of depression but few mention, or consider, the spiritual aspect. All of us are both body and spirit. Bill Bryson in his book ‘The Body’ refers to us as ‘occupants’ of the body. To ignore this aspect of ourselves is like walking blind-folded through life. We will never be completely happy until we turn our attention inwards and reconnect with our essence. We are by nature beings of peace, love and joy. Such qualities are part of our original spiritual DNA. We are not born depressed, anxious or stressed. We become depressed, anxious and stressed. Over time, journeying through this complicated and confusing world, we have lost our way. Our truth has become suppressed and submerged under a deluge of distractions, distortions and distressing life events. By remembering who we really are and re-connecting with the Light, magic happens. Depression changes from a curse into a blessing, a gift that can lead to self -transformation. The book is divided into two parts. PART 1: provides an understanding of depression and a spiritual framework to enable us to climb out of the bog of depression and return to our original state of contentment. It includes a four-step process, which can be summarised as follows: 1. Understand the Mind/Body Connection 2. Think Positively 3. Be Soul Conscious 4. Connect With The Light. Each step offers food for thought and there are reflective exercises to consolidate the learning and provide an opportunity to tune in to our own inner wisdom. PART 2: consists of a series of reflective experiments designed to reinforce the theory with practical experiences that will, hopefully, help us to break through the darkness into the Light of love, peace and hope. The book is available on Kindle and Amazon where it has four 5* reviews.
