I work from the position that we are reincarnated Spiritual Beings immersed in a human experience. When we are consciously unaware of this truth or deny it, we experience dis-ease within us that can manifest as anxiety, depression, phobias, or thoughts, feelings, or behaviors that do not serve us well. When we do eventually remember or awaken to this truth (often by way of one or more Spiritually Transformative Experiences), our attempts to integrate it into our daily lives can be painful in many different ways. It can lead to feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, and alone.
