How To Lift Your Spirits When Feeling Depressed or Low in Spirit
What Should I Do When I Am feeling Low in Spirit?
Hello, Jason Cain here and welcome to the Ancient wisdom modern mind podcast and today I'm going to give a short talk about what should you do when you are feeling low in spirit.
Being low in spirit is a sign you are ready to grow beyond your current self and the low feeling is generated by the ego, which feels threatened by this change.
If you choose to distract yourself and tell yourself it's only temporary and go hang out with friends, buy a treat or any of the million ways you can distract yourself from your feelings until the low point passes.
Then it will simply manifest again at some point in the future. But if you choose instead to grow and in a way become reborn within yourself, then you will see this low for the message it really is.
Low points are messages of change and growth and our sadness or depression is only resistance to this change.
So, first accept your feelings as an opportunity then try to become an observant witness within yourself. Watch your feelings let them flow through you and discard any ideas of censure or approval.
Only you can truly know the form this change will take but whether it's a mental change or physical change that is happening. By observing your feelings and accepting them you will also see more clearly the path of change that is calling to you.
If you know how to meditate then this will help you transition through this growth. As meditation quietens the ego, getting outside and long walks will also help you to contemplate your feelings away from distractions.
It’s hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel when you are going through the journey of life. You wish life were always good. But tough times are inevitable. They will happen every so often, even if you put your best foot forward to try to avoid them. So, sooner or later, you’ll need to learn to look for the lesson in the middle of a storm.
