Depression or in need of a cleansing?

Over the past few weeks I have been speaking with clients, family, friends, etc. about the overwhelming sense of depression.  Are we really depressed or are we in need of a personal cleansing?  Where is the fine line between going to a doctor to receive medications and turning to a holistic form of cleansing?  I think if you have been depressed throughout your whole childhood into your adult life or it runs in your family then it is important to seek medical attention. Otherwise, life will always hand us only what we can handle. We are all going to have bad times or days we do not want to get out of bed and keep moving. Or we say to ourselves "WHY ME!" Those are the times that I would turn to Sage cleansing as a form of "pick-me-up"! Let go of the negative draining thoughts that are bringing you to the state of depression or sadness. We all go through times where our energy is telling us to slow down, relax, take some time to yourself, even hid in your room. You all know what I mean. Everyone has had one of those moments sometime in their lifetime. I think it is very natural! Why did the Universe give us PMS? Don't think I am only talking about women either. Men have it too! I'm talking about the "POOR ME SYNDROME!" I had to say it! Don't think that you are alone and please remember that kids and young adults go through this as well! So we all could use a little JR Sage in our life. So many of my clients who use JR Sage to cleanse their personal space also cleanse their children's, husband's, or even their pet's space as well. I have only heard of positive results and positive praise. Like I always say..."I'm taking a beat!' I shut down my mind, burn my sage, take a smoke bath and just cleanse. Don't be so hard on yourself and realize that part of life is realizing that it is okay to stop and "take a beat!"
