The journey into one’s self/soul is not an easy one, because it brings strange, uncomfortable and scary feelings, which is why most people do not attempt it alone, or at all. The problem is that the good life is always calling and if you want it you’ll get to the bottom of your personal issues. It’s not always necessary to know the details if you've been blocked by trauma, as the emotions are the real indicators and if you have a thought that produces a negative one, you have to find a way to let go of it and its power over you. A word of advice is that you develop a sense of awareness of your emotional state of being as a form of preventative therapy rather than ignore it. A line you do not want to cross is the one where over-stress and over-grief seemingly overnight cause you to wake up with extremely high levels of anxiety and panic to the point where part of you is screaming to get out of your own skin.
