The psyche's challenges are energy problems located in the body/mind, not in the psyche. These energies impose themselves upon the psyche in very intrusive ways, resulting in the psyche's seeming pathology. They are chemical, emotional, psychic, spiritual energies. (Check Energy page, above.)

You must think beyond the conventional nine dots of clinical psychology, which is not only restrictive and destructive, it is invalid. The breath is a natural means by which to heal mental and emotional challenges...coupled with nutrition for healing unsound body chemistry.

CHEMICAL ENERGY
Even if your problem seems undeniably mental/emotional have your body's chemistry checked. Unsound bio-chemistry can affect your consciousness in unusual ways. Nutrition oriented physicians will provide all necessary help.

Holistic doctors will test to determine your biochemical profile. If this shows a problem your body's chemistry will be brought into balance with proper food, vitamins and minerals, never with pharmaceutical drugs which have no nutritional validity and ultimately degrade your metabolism.

Canadian psychiatrist Abram Hoffer developed mega-vitamin therapy to heal mental and emotional problems. Sadly, he recently passed away. Dr. Hoffer was a giant who made an enormous contribution. Dominated by a spurious drug industry, most of psychiatry turned its back on nutritional therapy.

If you are on pharmaceutical drugs you must find a holistic doctor to wean you off those dangerous chemicals and provide nutritional therapy to balance your body's chemistry. This may be all you need to heal of what ails you.

EMOTIONAL ENERGY
If your body chemistry is in good shape and problems persist then emotional therapy likely is required. I did not say psychotherapy...your psyche is fine. You must deal with emotional energies, and they are lodged in your body.

Find a therapy that will help you purge your body/mind of its storage of emotional energies. Yoga breathing is highly recommended. California psychiatrist Stanislav Grof includes yoga breathing among his therapies. He calls it holotropic breathwork.

Anyone can learn to do this...and everyone should learn it. The best part is that it is natural, not manmade. It's breathing...you can't get more natural than that. It does not require an MD or a PhD...nor should it. Training for this natural healing function is a matter of hours, not years.

SPIRITUAL ENERGY - Kundalini
If emotional therapies are not getting the job done then your challenges may be due to spiritual energies.

From unfounded scientific bias medical psychiatry does not acknowledge the validity of spiritual experiences. That earns them at least one giant demerit. TO BE HUMAN IS TO HAVE SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCES. It is an integral part of our humanity.

Spiritual experiences can be due to what is called a Kundalini awakening which can provide extremely weird physical, mental and emotional experiences. When you are not ready for it you will think you are going mad. (Google this for tons of information.)

Medical psychiatry, asleep to spiritual reality, will diagnose schizophrenia. But, nothing is wrong with you...you are discovering the domain of spirit in a vexing way.

Having studied kundalini yoga and having experimented with it, I had kundalini experiences that were very disconcerting. I stopped experimenting.

If you have an uncomfortable kundalini awakening that is difficult to deal with, as first aid put a light coat of olive oil all over your body and face. And place your feet in a bucket of very salty water. If that doesn't stabilize you within a couple of hours seek help from a pranic healer.

SPIRITUAL ENERGY - Shamanic
Another spiritual experience that can be the source of weird mental problems is a spontaneous shamanic journey. (Google shamanic journey.) All spiritual experiences occur at the level of energy...and they occur in your body/mind... which is why Jesus said, "The kingdom of God is within you."

Spontaneous shamanic journeys can be extremely weird. When it happens it is possible you are being karmically conscripted into the ranks of shamanic healers. Find a shaman to help you stabilize and to teach you about this incredible form of spiritual healing. Shamanic healers are found all over and many have masters degrees in psychology for conventional approbation.

Provided above is a summary of our mental and emotional problems and how to deal with them holistically and spiritually. Other pages on this site contain more details about each of these states.

PSYCHIC ENERGY
All of us are at the effect of psychic energy for we all are psychic, if only at a subconscious level. Picking up on other people's subconcious pain can put you in pain. That's what childhood autism is all about.
