Look into CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy) , I think you need it yourself based on all the lulloo stuff you come out with.

CBT...yes!!.......this is definitely the answer........I have been engaging in it for a few years.

You've had experience of CBT?

Is it more like getting more attuned with your intuition ?

It's really good..........natural....and like N30 says....''getting in touch with intuition"

and I swear it works if you do it with serious intentions..and it will help in conquering your mind, ..overcoming weaknesses and panj chor..In fact, ..anyone one of your panj chor issues can be addressed and worked at.

It makes you look at any given situation ''outside'  of your own ego...........and this all fits in nicely for me in terms of gurmat and trying to keep the proper jeevan jach.

 

You know,,  people don't go around saying that they visit a psychologist or see a counsellor....but my case was quite different......and I'm completely open about it.  The ones that shun and disregard are the ones that always hide their own weaknesses and insecurities.

It was part of my physical rehabilitation after coming out of a coma with multiple injuries........The fact that nearly all my therapists have been spiritually inclined and not Sikhs, has probably helped a great deal and I have only used natural, alternative and adjunct therapies.

When I studied psychology I always thought CBT and Bandura's approach was the most conducive. And Lucky I don't judge people for seeking help, it's probably a helluva lot better than stewing in your own issues. 

I've met a fair few people who've done it now, a lot of them have had SERIOUS family issues; like sexual abuse and ish.
