Treating Depression With Energy Medicine
Individual Remedies are Used to Balance Mind, Body and Spirit
Jan 11, 2009
In these challenging times of the credit crunch, more and more people are looking for ways of coping with work stress and depression. According to the World Health Organisation depression affects about 121 million people world wide.
101: As a Naturopath and a Practitioner of Energy Medicine what do you think is the best treatment for depression?
Samantha : I feel that Energy Medicine is one of the most effective therapies for depression as it deals with the underlying cause. I believe that depression has a deeper cause than an imbalance of chemicals within the central nervous system. It is important is to discover what has caused this imbalance and use Energy Medicine to treat the depression. Once we find the cause we can release it and then the mind, body and spirit can be once more in balance.
There’s no one cause of depression; it varies very much from person to person and can happen for a variety of factors. The past can have a profound effect on how we feel about ourselves in the present and if those feelings are very negative they can be the start of a downward spiral.
When we look deeper into a personal history we can find old shock, trauma and suppressed emotions which when left over time can turn into depression and other mental or even physical illnesses. When old trauma and negative energy are detected and then treated with the correct energy remedy they can be released. Once released the patient feels better and the depression will lift.
101: So is there something like a specific flower remedy to treat depression?
Samantha : No there would not be a specific remedy as a treatment for depression. We look at the whole person and then tailor make a remedy or remedies that will best heal them. I use thousands of different energy remedies ranging from homeopathic medicine to flower, crystal, tree and environmental essence and usually do not use the same combination twice; we are all individual and should be treated as such. This is not a drug for a bug but a complete healing system that brings you back into a balanced mind, body and spirit.
101 : How long does it take to treat depression with energy medicine?
Samantha: A person may only have a small amount of negative energy locked into their system or there could be many layers which is why the healing process varies in time and intensity with different people. Some may heal after one or two sessions whereas others may take longer. During a consultation I will assess the problem using dowsing and then prescribe the best energy remedies to use.
After around four weeks the client will have a follow on appointment to reassess and see how much progress has been made with their treatment for depression. As long as the client sees some positive difference in their health and wellbeing they are usually willing to continue until they have reached an ideal positive state.
101 : Do you have any advice for people reading this who may be experiencing depression?
Samantha: The most important step is acknowledging that you may have a problem and then seeking help. Always remember you are not alone even if it may feel like it and that asking for help is not a sign of weakness, but a step towards recovery.
