We were using our sex lives to manage our emotions prior to the pandemic

For the most part, the majority of us do not understand the holistic healing process. If we get involved in a spiritual community (not religion) we may begin to hear things about chakras, energetic bodies and the term “healing” which has now become popular.

But what is healing exactly and why are we so much more emotionally unhinged now that we were before?

According to intuitive Jill Willard, there are four main bodies of energy that need to be healed on our spiritual journeys. They are the mental body, the physical body, the emotional body, and the spiritual body. When these four entities are in balance, we are in alignment with who we really are. When I discovered that both the mental and the physical body were related to our masculine energy and the emotional and spiritual bodies related to our feminine energy — a lightbulb went off. No wonder we have been so imbalanced for so long! We have favored only the mental (our thoughts and attitudes) and the physical (the way we look and physically feel) over our emotions, and certainly, spirituality. We have been over doing our masculine at the expense of the feminine for far too long.

So how did we manage up until now?
