When Inner Engineering is not helping what to do? What else to do for your Mental health?

So Brigid akka called me a few days back and said whether I would be open to do an Instagram Live where we talk about the less discussed thing that happens in a meditators life. So this is a honest and open conversation where we talk about things such as Sadhana struggles, when Inner Engineering may not work for you even after practicing for a long time, dropping the practices etc etc. Please be open to this as these are real struggles faced by a lot of us. If you are one such meditator who cannot relate with all the happiness and bliss all over social media and everyday is a struggle with sadhana i would definitely recommend this one. 0:00 First time for everything INTRO  1:35 A doubt whether the YOGIC practices are working  3:59 Weam joins us but we loose her because of Mark Zuckerberg 😅  6:15 Psychiatrist Stef joins us  7:14 Why meditators need support along with Sadhana  9:08 Brief overview on why this conversation by Brigid   11:00 Zervue joins the conversation  16:00 What do mental health struggle looks like  23:00 Could sadhana bring up mental health issues?  30:37 Some of the personal struggles I am facing right now and how I am coping with it.  36:00 Is Inner Engineering the ultimate tool?  38:37 Sit down and journal for hours if you need to  40:45 Can we add therapeutic models to support the practicioners  43:45 Acceptance and commitment therapy  48:52 Why having a therapist is helpful and supportive  51:54 The first hatha yoga teacher Annie who had opened up about her mental health struggles even after hatha yoga teacher training  53:05 Going for silence in the ashram  55:30 When Sadhana is not working you might have to leave it  1:02:00 How Brigid akka suffered from an Auto immune disease which almost took her life  1:11:11 Sitting in the sucks!!!  1:16:57 How shamans come out of their psychotic breakdown  1:23:00 You are not alone as a meditator who is struggling  1:25:00 How as guys we need lots of caring and loving women around us  1:26:19 A thing that might make me unpopular among isha community  1:27:18 The two books that always helps me  1:33:00 Drop your questions in the comments  1:36:00 Expending your energy through physical exercises can help a lot  1:38:00 Sometimes taking care of the simple things like sleeping and eating can make the most difference  1:39:00 Behaviour activation Instagram handles of speakers  Brigid: https://www.instagram.com/brigid_oneil/ Zervue: https://www.instagram.com/zervue22/ Stefanie: https://www.instagram.com/steflives/ Weam: https://www.instagram.com/weam_wf/  Resource list: Still working on it guys 😅   Connect with me and an awesome community on Discord:  https://discord.gg/quazmzdf87
