I got your book yesterday Sir Martin. I am very excited because I need healing more than ever this week.
I was going to ask you last week about a feeling I have of not being "in" my lower three chakras. The best way to describe it is like I pull myself up out of my lower chakras an into my heart chakra area. I didn't ask you last week because I wanted to read the book to try to understand more first. When I was reading the chapter titled Passage, it kind of made sense. Your description of people going through a passage from yellow to green chakra sounded like me. I have been going through what society would call a "mental breakdown" for several years now. I've changed jobs/careers several times. I've split with my wife and got back several times. I suffer from severe depression and anxiety. I really feel out of control. Also, one of my more serious physical symptoms relates to my diaphragm and my rib cage around my diaphragm.
The way I feel is that I'm stuck in some sort of limbo between yellow and green. Does this make sense? How can I progress? My situation is rather extreme. Sometimes I feel like my depression is a terminal illness and that ultimately it will kill me. Do you have any guidance? I am asking now before I finish your book because I am having an especially bad day today.

Does indeed sound like a passage. Focus your attention on perceptions of love, seeing how people are motivated by love and sometimes reacting to the perception that it's not there. See your own perceptions in the same way. Focus on accepting what is, and moving on.
Don't worry about dying - focus on rebirth, and see the new being emerging. The new you.

It is good to see you back Sir Martin.
I am feeling much better since my first post on this thread. After posting, I was able to nearly finish your book. It is helping alot. I almost posted a paragraph from Chapter 18 which answered my question above perfectly.
You said in your reply that I should "focus on moving on". That is exactly what I feel like I have done different since my other post. I have made some new career path decisions that seem to have released a significant amount of my tensions. I am working on the ones that remain.
You also mentioned perceptions of Love. Your chapter called "Love Heals" really helped me. A big part of my tensions come from viewing the world in general and many of the people around me as being evil and unloving. I am coming to understand how everything really is motivated by Love even when it seems the opposite. This helps me see the world and other perople in a different light and Love them more. This makes the world feel like a better place to be.
Thanks again for all you help.

You're very welcome. I'm sure you're seeing a very different world around you.
Love really does heal, doesn't it?
