Feeling stuck? Try these 5 unconventional healing methods.

Have you ever felt frustrated because life has reached a plateau? Maybe you’ve been trying to change jobs, have a baby, get married, or conversely, are trying to leave an unhappy relationship, job, or place…. and you just can’t. I am way too familiar with this feeling of being stuck! And my consensus is that it’s the worst state to be in (because growth is the inherent nature of this Universe).

However, me being me, I’ve been quite stubborn to fight for the things I want. And along the way, I’ve discovered many unconventional healing methods that have helped me and my clients unblock our life and regain clarity & happiness when we were unable to make progress otherwise. I’m so excited to share this list of methods with you today!

To Get Unstuck, First Understand the 3 Factors Affecting Your Life

Before we get into the different methods and techniques, let’s talk about the 3 types of luck that we all carry. This will also help you better understand how exactly the tools mentioned in the next section will work.

So, our life is impacted by the following:

• Heaven Luck (the experiences we’re “destined” to have as a result of our past life karma)
• Earth Luck (our environmental factors like culture, society, war, the plague, etc)
• Human Luck (our free will & the inner work we do to create change in our life)

Understanding these 3 factors can help us realize two things: one, that of course we are not solely responsible for everything that happens to us. Which by the way, is a toxic “manifestation” idea.

And two: Even if at first, it felt like we’ve tried everything but we are still feeling stuck, there might be more unconventional ways to bring the odds back in our favor.

So, let’s talk about what those ways are now.

5 Unique Healing Methods to Help You Unblock Your Success

Here are the tools I recommend exploring so that you can also have an influence on the various factors that influence you:

#1 – healing the unconscious mind

What you can’t see, you can’t fix. Right?

Your conscious mind (logical brain) is a fraction of who you are. Think of it like the tip of an iceberg.

And your unconscious mind carries the bulk of your thoughts, beliefs, and habits. It’s called unconscious because you don’t want to consciously have to remember how to open a door or drive a car, every single time. But this can become a problem if your unconscious mind is storing unhelpful thoughts, beliefs, and patterns.

Here’s an example:

A client’s health was deteriorating and she desperately needed to switch out of her taxing job. But she wasn’t able to let go for some reason. In one of our sessions, we discovered that unconsciously, she was afraid her partner wouldn’t be able to financially support her if she left the job.

It turns out, this fear stemmed from childhood: her mother had experienced this trauma in marriage and my client had grown up with the belief that she can’t trust her partner for financial support. As soon as she was coached around this dynamic, my client not only resigned from her job and leaned financially on her partner, she quickly regained her health both mentally and physically.

So, letting go of her fears helped her tap into the support that was always there for her. All she had to do was take it! This is thus, an example of a tool to use to improve your Human Luck – it’s about getting out of your own way.

#2 – healing spiritual “contracts”

If this is the first article you’re reading from my blog, then the term “soul contract” might need an introduction. I go into the subject over many, many articles and resources. Some of which I’ll list below. But the gist is that as spiritual beings, we chose the lessons we want to learn before we incarnate.

We collaborate with other souls and our spirit guides to determine how we will learn these lessons. So for instance, we might learn the importance of honesty when someone is infidel with us in this lifetime. Or we might learn to “receive” only once we’ve been made bedridden from an injury.

The souls that agree to help us heal will get into soul contracts with us. And these connections on Earth can become very painful if we forget their higher purpose in our life.

I’ve often seen that the soul contracts to impact us most deeply are usually associated with mother wounds, father wounds, and romantic ties.

So, healing our soul contracts becomes important in situations such as:

• You’re trying to exit a relationship but are unable to,
• You want to move to a different place, or switch jobs but seem to be “stuck”,
• Maybe you’re like me and you’re “destined” to marry someone but you’re resisting and so the Universe puts everything else on pause too.

Healing our soul contracts is a part of rewriting our Heaven Luck. To heal them and get unstuck, here are some resources:

• Article: What are soul contracts? And how can they help us heal?
• Article: Do soul contracts have to be painful?
• Video: Tool to help you stop taking things so personally

#3 – healing past life baggage

Healing our past lives is also an example of rewriting our Heaven Luck.

The technique involved in past life regression is called Hypnotherapy. While it’s nothing like the theatrical stage hypnosis shown on television, this methodology itself might sound woo-woo at first! So, it important to understand how it works – that way we can drop the stigma and truly benefit from it. I’ve written a dedicated article explaining the science behind past life healing to raise more awareness.

And here are some examples of how healing past lives can change the trajectory of your current lifetime:

• Client M went back in time to a past life where her partner drowned and she was unable to save him. She had been carrying the guilt of his death ever since, and noticing that helped her finally get free from the guilt of divorcing him in her current lifetime. She could finally let go of the “promise” her soul had made to not leave him, and pursue a life freed from this soul contract.
• In an afterlife session, Client R was able to connect with her deceased mother and aunt. They showered her with unconditional love and acceptance: something she had forgotten how to do as a result of all the body-shaming she had endured over the years. Soon after that, she started seeing herself with much more love and for more than just her weight or appearance.

• Client S who is a high-achiever was able to see her former lifetime, where she lived a much more calm and simply-paced lifestyle. She had never experienced such stillness in this current lifetime, so this became a visceral reminder for her to step away from the hustle. Her nervous system was reset and she could finally understand what it means to slow down.

NOTE: past life regression is NOT for everyone. Lots of nuance is required here. For instance, there are times when the mind might block a PLR session because it’s either not necessary or not the right time to process a traumatic past. It’s also important to work with a professional that will not just help you “see” a past life but will also teach you how to integrate and heal from it. You can request a consultation to get a sense of whether this modality and the practitioner are right for you.

#4 – healing the environment

Sure, we can’t fix the world (and that hurts to write).

But don’t underestimate what you can do to create a ripple in the collective healing.

For instance, this research called the Maharishi Effect could prove that Merseyside city’s crime rate dropped significantly in the weeks, months, and years to follow after a group actively meditated towards healing the collective consciousness. Dozens of similar studies were done that came to similar conclusions.

If you can arrange a large group of meditators for your locality, that would be spectacular! And in the meantime, here are some simpler recommendations to help you do your part in healing the environment:

• Be the change. Practice the following guided technique for the next 7 days and notice how it impacts the people around you. I’ve seen the hiccups go away in my relationships countless times, simply by praying for the ones that irk me the most.

• Shift the energy of your home and workspace. I’m not a Feng Shui expert, but I thoroughly enjoyed putting Marie Diamond’s tools into practice through her MindValley course. I could instantly feel the energy of my workspace lighten and have ever since continued to make adjustments and feel benefitted.
• Travel across waters. This is an old grandmother’s folklore that I’ve personally found to be true but can’t explain logically. It’s believed that if we’ve been jinxed, the effect of someone’s negative energy dispels when we fly over the sea or ocean.
• Understand your relationship with the land. For instance, I often share the story of how my coaching practice picked up much more momentum after I “moved lands” – from India to Canada. And there’s another time when we did some 1:1 spiritual work and my client was able to finally understand why her house was “cursed” with constant problems from brand new equipment failing to plumbing and electricity issues – the house’s spirit was afraid she’d move out if things were fixed and that would lead to its demolishing. Powerful!

There are many such examples when it comes to healing the environment. And we can classify these as healing our Earth Luck.

#5 – healing ancestral lineage

Sometimes, we feel stuck because it’s something we’ve inherited! Our elders have passed on their unhealed lineage to us. Studies in the field of transgenerational trauma can help us understand that our fears, patterns, habits, and so on can be influenced not just by our parents, but multiple generations prior to theirs.

The book It Didn’t Start With You, is a great introduction to this area of work.

Here are some ways that your ancestral lineage can hold you back from making progress:

• What is your relationship with money? If you fear poverty or keep having setbacks in your financial growth, it may have to do with how your ancestors dealt with their money stories.
• Spiritual context: If you’re trying to have a baby or get married, and are unable to, this could have something to do with your ancestors interrupting the upcoming lineage changes.
• Biologically, we can take on diseases that have been sitting silently in our family for generations.

The good news is, just like everything else so far, it is possible to heal from our ancestral blocks. You don’t have to know your family history in order to heal from the past. It can happen through a combination of neuro-psycho-spiritual methodologies. Happy to facilitate that for you.

Concluding Thoughts

I KNOW how much it sucks to not have the kind of life you’d once imagined for yourself. To feel like you could have been doing more with your time and potential. But don’t give up on your dreams, hopes, and happiness. You’re worthy of everything and more. There might just be more to the picture than you can see right now. And I hope this list of unconventional healing techniques and stories inspires you to take another chance at creating a life you can feel really good about.

Can you believe in yourself enough to try something new and finally get unstuck?
