S01E09 - Depression - One of Today’s Greatest Teachers.
This episode is another timeless lecture from the 2021 Karma to Dharma program. Sannyasi Shivani explains depression through the lens of the chakras and offers us a way out as in she helps us understand what makes up the mechanics of depression. She also explains why as a society we are experiencing higher rates of anxiety and depression and how the symptoms of covid were an individual and a collective purification to help us step into something more, something beyond the mind, something more in heart mind connection. Her invitation is to see depression as a message of our soul telling us that we can no longer step forward from the foundation we are currently operating from and that we need to shift into a foundation of trust, so we can come into the foundation of the heart. If you are currently experiencing depression, please remember what Sannyasi Shivani said, “even if it is cloudy, the sun is shining, the light is there, even if you cannot see it, faith is there, even if the only thing you experience is fear, if you are listening to this, it is because you are ready, so doubting yourself and start trusting the path and trusting the work and do the work and grace will prevail.” Lastly she reminds us that we need not rush this process, on the contrary, we need to slow down and do the work that will help us expand our capacity to feel the interconnectivity with all.
