Perhaps you’ve been in treatment for depression for years and you’ve tried a handful (or more) of antidepressant medications but you just haven’t found the sense of relief you seek. Maybe medication or therapy work for a while but you feel like it’s not an effective long-term plan.

You can’t shake the feeling that you want another type of treatment, but feel like you’re out of options. Your psychiatrist and therapist are unsure of what’s next, yet you really do want to manage your Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD) or Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). You’re open to trying something different...but what?

You’ve probably heard about Psychedelic Therapy or read Michael Pollan’s book How to Change Your Mind. Interesting...but finding some “magic mushrooms” or MDMA and a guide seems like a lot of work (not to mention illegal unless you can become a research study participant) and especially so with symptoms of Depression. Yet you still wonder if Psychedelic healing is a possibility for you.

Dreams have been a long-standing subject of study in the field of psychology and provide a wealth of information to dreamers . Why? Dreams are communications from your unconscious mind.

Don’t worry; this isn’t going to be a lecture about psychology. If you aren’t interested in the field, you probably don’t want the nitty-gritty details. That’s okay, but what we’re covering is still important to you and I’ll tell you why.

Our dreams are provide an expression of our thoughts and many believe they hold the keys to unlocking our inner struggles. A psychotherapist by the name of Carl Jung believed this, too, as he felt that dreams could show us a lot about ourselves. More specifically, he felt if we focused on the symbolism of our dreams we might get an idea of what those dreams are trying to tell us.

He believed that dreams are specific to the individual and this is very true. Dreams show us our inner desires, inner struggles, and so much more that could lead us toward the path to self-healing.

There are many common reactions to stress about Coronavirus including: fear about being infected or having friends and family be impacted, worry, feelings of helplessness, anger, hypervigilance, feelings of panic, and difficulty concentrating or sleeping, to name a few! Stress is a sign that your nervous system has perceived a threat and is taking action to keep you safe. The sympathetic nervous system reacts with “flight/fight/freeze” responses such as sweating, racing heart, increased adrenaline, spiraling thoughts, trouble sleeping, and rumination. These feelings may motivate you to prepare for a potentially dangerous situation, cause you to ‘shut down’ via freeze, or encourage a variety of other responses based on your life experiences.

Intuition is our uncanny ability to just know something, without really thinking about it logically. It’s that little voice in the back of your head, telling you that you should do this or consider that without really being clear as to why.

But wait… Isn’t that what instinct is?

Not exactly, but it’s easy to see where the confusion is. See, there’s an important distinction to be made when you want to define intuitive and something instinctive.

Instinct urges you to take action, but it’s usually caused by something in your environment. It’s your body’s natural response to certain elements around you, telling you to do something for the sake of self-preservation.

Then how does intuition come into play?

Intuition is similar but not quite the same. Remember, with instinct we have a known reason for why we’re acting as we are but with intuition, we don’t see what’s causing the sensation. It’s usually more of a phantom feeling, giving warning of something that might come and often, we don’t know what that something is until much later. That’s the main difference.
