When you\u2019re trapped in depression, anxiety-induced panic, or apathy, it can feel as if you\u2019re in an endless tunnel with no way out. If you\u2019re weighed down by the thought that it may last forever, here are three suggestions for finding your way forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Where does this suffering show up in your body?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When your heart feels crushed under the weight of everything, try asking yourself, “Where does this suffering show up in my body?” Simply asking this question and tuning into your body can reconnect you to it, even amidst the fog of depressive thoughts that make you feel trapped. Reconnecting with your body is, in essence, reconnecting with your Unihipili.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many people who experience anxiety or panic may see it as an issue of the mind, but that\u2019s precisely when bringing awareness back to the body can help. Hugging yourself, singing, or dancing can be grounding actions. For me, running or swimming brings that connection back. Relearning and re-engaging with your body\u2014by noticing what it needs, rather than relying on someone else\u2019s idea of what\u2019s right for you\u2014is often the first step out of depression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Depression reflects a state where your Unihipili is distant from your true self. By focusing on the body and listening to its subtle signals, you can release the mental label of \u201cdepression\u201d and \u201cdespair.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Feel the Seasons<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you\u2019re in a depressive state, it may seem as if this state will last forever, as if it defines your entire being. However, think of the seasons: spring, summer, autumn, and winter each come with their own qualities. Even if you dislike the bitter cold of winter and struggle to endure it, seasons and time constantly flow and transform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Life, too, has its own seasons, and these are always changing. Even if you feel unprepared or powerless in moments of apathy, you can use Cleaning to bring a sense of sacredness to the rhythm of life\u2019s seasons. In this very moment, even within pain, you have the power to reclaim yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Breathing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sacred breath is always there, reaching and connecting you to life. However, when overwhelmed by memories or thoughts, it\u2019s hard to sense it. When you feel anxiety, your emotions are reacting through your body, making you feel unsafe or distressed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You might try to solve the problem at hand, but instead, gently approach your Unihipili as a mother would soothe a fearful child. This is often the quickest path back to peace and balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis doesn\u2019t feel safe!\u201d 
\u201cI\u2019m uncomfortable!\u201d 
\u201cI feel unloved!\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To the cries of our Unihipili, what we need to do is to restore our bond of love and connection\u2014this is essential for resetting the body and regaining balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peace
