4 Main Causes Of Mental Illness According To Shamanism
- Details
- Written by Redakcia

Shamans are not wizards. Rather, they are men and women who have attained a higher degree of consciousness and were born with healing abilities. They are able to perceive things in a way that their surroundings may seem extraterrestrial. Shamans are well aware that body medicine does not benefit the soul. They are well aware that the soul needs its own kind of medicine.
When we go through the physical plane, we inevitably get sick. Sometimes we get the flu and other times we break our bones. Sadly, however, some of us have to fight things like cancer or jaundice. Regardless of the severity of the disease, it needs to be treated properly.
One day we will all die, whether in old age or anything else. However, the death of the physical body is very different from the "death" of the soul. When you look at the disease from a shamanic point of view, most of these ailments become quite clear. All diseases can be found in their germinal area. Suppression of these diseases is not enough to cure them. For real healing, you must reach their roots and find the cause that triggers them.
List of 4 main causes of spiritual diseases according to shamanism
Depending on its depth, a spiritual disease can also manifest itself as a physical disease. If we want to maintain physical health, we should pay more attention to our spiritual health.
1. Fear
If a person only mechanically goes through life with a feeling of fear that consumes him in the very core of his being, he becomes vulnerable to disease. Anxiety causes diseases of the body. At the same time, fear creates a second cause, disharmony.
2. Disharmony
We go through it when our lives suddenly lose their meaning. I've found that it happens very often when we lose someone or something important. The state of disharmony will cause your personal strength to diminish.
3. Overlook
If you are overlooked or overlook yourself, you are not getting what you need in life. This will cause your body to send warning signals, and if you ignore them, you will get sick. When you need to be pampered, find a way to indulge.
4. "Soul Loss"
Yes, I said "soul loss." This is one of the most serious things you can ever solve. It occurs when you completely lose the will to live. This can happen for many reasons, but it is always a trigger for a very scary experience. If you think you may be experiencing soul loss, consider the following symptoms:
- You feel incomplete
- You can't remember different things
- You are apathetic
- You lack initiative
- You miss joy
- You are emotionally at the bottom
- You have suicidal tendencies
- You experience chronic destructive thinking
- You are unable to make decisions
- You feel despair
- You suffer from chronic depression
When you realize that what you are going through is the loss of the soul, you will have to take as many steps as possible to save yourself. The soul will have to be saved. Remember that you are important and that your life is worth it. This is not a loss of the soul in the true sense of the word, but a name for a serious mental state.
