Are we malnourishing our minds?

The food industry has seen an increase in healthy eating, more and more people are waking up to what ‘good fats’ are and how greens provide certain nutrients that help our bodies, even the intake of sugars is less than before. Yes, the turning of our food industry for the better has been achieved. More people than ever are eating in a healthier way, recognising what is best for their bodies, including exercise that helps. The holistic health food industry has a seen a surge in alternative lifestyles of people, using even alternative medicines such as homeopathy and herbal remedies. Many of my clients are noticing how their medications stop working and that many other medications they try, give them side effects. Many of them come to me saying that they want to try counselling so they can come off their medication and work on their self in a more internal way. We are waking up to how medications can act like a mask for ‘fixing’ the problem, it is more like a band aid that works for a short while, but then you realise it is definitely not a long-term fix, and that maybe it never was a fix, more like something to use to make you feel better almost like watching a TV show to boost your mood then going back to misery again.

My question is, if we are waking up to more holistic and alternative health remedies including healthy foods, why are we not treating our minds the same way? We care so much about what goes in our bodies, and how exercise can have a positive impact; and all this does help our mental state as well, as the holistic way (all that is) is the most effective way for mind, body and spirit. However, what inner work offers that external sources does not, is the chance to actually TRANSFORM yourself within. Real transformation occurs from inside, this is real alchemy, where we notice what is occurring for us (energy inside of us) and transmute this into positive, more loving and soul fulfilling lifestyles, where next time a trigger occurs you no longer are impacted by it, as you have done the inner work. Can you imagine living your life without stress? Without any fear? Well this is very possible to do, in fact the world is now doing this specific thing; that is transforming us internally to rise from the old (the lower denser ways) into lighter more loving ways.

I have seen transformations in my clients, as well as my own transformations and this alchemy (inner work) is the ultimate answer to ALL our problems in the world. If we could just face ourselves without fear, with complete compassion, we can start doing the REAL healing. Once the real healing gets done, we start noticing that we feel so abundant within that the outside materials do not matter so much and that the fear that has been driven into us is no more, that we can finally feel completely free inside. Freedom is what we have come here with, however the fake ‘powers’ of this world, has deeply conditioned us so much that we absolutely feel that we are not free. I have been one of these people myself, and being in that mode you don’t even see that you do not feel free, so naturally there is resistance to the fact that you don’t feel free. It is only when I started to break out of that ‘feeling unfree’ that I noticed the difference between feeling free and trapped. We have been enslaved, and the only way out is by noticing this and by setting yourself free from INSIDE.

The key here is the knowing that you are free, which is the same as love, rather than fear. My point is, we can seek all the external sources we like, believe that all these stuff will complete us and finally make us happy or free, however the reality is nothing and I mean nothing can do that like internal alchemy, self-development, inner work etc. Can we start putting the time and space in for healing ourselves rather than doing everything else to make us feel like we have control? Because in actual fact, it is your soul that chose every part of your life which you are living constantly, your soul is always doing the work, but as your soul works with your heart it requires you to know that you are free and that your mental state and internal energy (emotions) is the element to the updating of you. So what do we really want? Real transformation? Or pretend masking? Feel into yourself and what you get from your heart will be the answer, and let me give you a hint, it is not what is outside of you.
