I just read a statistic that 10% of women and 4% of men are taking antidepressants.
I know that for some people, this season that is intended to be joyful can harshly amplify what we call depression. I say "what we call depression" because I don’t think we’re all calling the same thing "depression."
I have a different take on depression. It has to do with gravity and how it pulls all things down. And so the antidote becomes clear. Spirit brings all things up. And our access to that uplifting energy is in the energetic spine.
That’s a simplified version of it. (The long version is in Rooted in the Infinite.) And by the way, this approach does not conflict with any form of treatment since it is purely natural.
I’m holding out my hand this season.
Well, my proverbial hand.
I’m putting forward some (radically) different ways of looking at depression and offering some (energetically) different ways of dealing with it.
I knew it might stir up a bit of controversy but it seemed worth it.
It was my intention, in offering the post and video of Byron Katie on money, to bring something to light about the process of manifestation.
Did it work?
In response to Andrew’s comment (and I think he speaks for many) I thought I’d explain this a bit further.
I want to show you different ways that you can instantly release your fears and anxieties about money.
Then 2 things happen.
You get happier in your now.
You open yourself to more satisfying manifestations.
I like to talk about these different desires as running along the different axes of our 3 dimensional world and body. (I explain this all in great detail in Rooted in the Infinite. )
Now, here is where it gets interesting.
Those 2 things that happen when you release resistance are happening along 2 different axes.
Let’s look at it again:
You get happier in your now.
This happens on the Y-axis. It resides in your upright spine. It aligns you with spirit and give you access to Infinite Consciousness.
You open yourself to more satisfying manifestations.
This happens on your Z-axis. It resides in your forward facing awareness of time and journey. It aligns you with the preferences of your unique incarnation and the choices you make as an individual creative being.
So, we can see Byron Katie’s message as a Y-axis teaching or what we would traditionally call a spiritual teaching. It does not depart from the now.
And we can see the Science of Deliberate Creation as more of a Z-axis teaching. It focuses on the journey and reveals the process of manifestation.
And once Abraham strated calling this "The Art of Allowing," the focus came back toward the Y-axis.
And both axes live in your body and your world.
The Abraham-Hicks video above bridges the two. Any true Z-axis teaching must be based in the Y-axis. And Abraham is.
The harmony between the 3 axes and their native desires is at the heart of our YOFA Training. The mystical meeting point of the three is the center point of consciousness.

I did a YOFA jhe Session for the list (including the free list) tonight.
In one word, this session was about kindness.
In more words, this session was an alignment of the energy of the extended, major anatomical X-axis structures into the Z-axis for the purpose of profound, authentic, and true relationship between you and the people who matter to you.
To augment the results of this session, you can read the section on the paradox of ego in Rooted in the Infinite.
This session may show its face in different ways in your various relationships.
Common to all of them is a spring of kindness that rises up within you.
What is especially noticeable, in the authentic instant of that spring of kindness, is that you don’t experience it as kindness.
You experience it as extraordinary beauty in the other.
And so what looks like kindness to others observing your behavior, is really your natural and spontaneous reaction to the light that shines within the other. You just happen to be seeing it. That is the opening that creates the action that we understand as kindness.
How you respond to your mother when you are aligned is different form how you respond to your child, but the alignment is always visible in your spontaneous acts of kindness.
This session works below the surface, but the recognizable result is the natural and spontaneous choice of words, facial expressions, and gestures that are filled with kindness. And while this might seem like a selfless place to be, it is the most beneficial alignment for every aspect of your life.
