💔🧭Finding Your Way When You Feel Lost🧭💔
Updated: Jan 13, 2022
The changing of the calendar doesn't bode away anxiety and depression instantly. The changing cycles of the planets DOES create change on a longer term level, oh yes, but it is up to us to understand how to manage our moods, actions, and behaviors in the day to day.
I know the cycles of anxiety and depression all too well, and I wanted to share a few of my tried and true tricks I have learned here in this post. (Note: I am not a licensed professional counselor; I am simply sharing and informing from my own experiences as a human being living a spiritual life on this planet at this time.)

🧭Focus on one small thing that feels RIGHT🧭
Often when we go into deeper states of anxiety and depression, it is because we have let energetic vibrations compound. Just like a super sandwich, everything is layered. Its not just one thing, its oh so many (and paradoxically this is what makes you feel inhibited to talk about it all because you don't even know where to begin). What we need to do is break the "big sandwich" into its lettuce, then vegan cheese, then mustard, then pepperoncini (one of my fav sandwiches I make as a vegan foodie).
Ask yourself "what is ONE small thing I can do right now that feels RIGHT"? If you think of something and its too big, break that down into smaller parts. Think small, and I mean small. Sometimes for me its making my bed, tidying up my room, or putting on some mascara, eyeshadow, and lip gloss. Often we are in need of "resetting our vibration" and the energy and momentum of that one small positive act can get our mojo going again. If the anxiety or depression kicks back in after that one small act, repeat the process again, maybe reaching for something a bit longer - doing 20 minutes of yoga, meditating for 7 minutes etc.
Another tool that has helped me immensely (and I mean immensely- I have used this in some of my darkest hours) is the Abraham Hicks Emotional Guidance Scale. I've dropped a picture of this below. The Hicks scale teaches us that everything is on a continuum of emotion, and in fact, joy and powerless both exist on the same spectrum, just at opposite poles. In fact, this is actually one of the Hermetic Principles: its called "The Principle of Polarity" and you can read about it in The Kybalion. So, in essence...that millionaire or that person in ecstacy right now is NO DIFFERENT than you. You are each just on opposite ends of the spectrum, and you need to find a way to edge yourself the opposite end of the pole, even if its just up one notch.
