Have you ever got that "sinking" feeling - for no reason? You know, the feeling that there is something wrong with you or the world and it seems like you just can't seem to shake the thoughts? Perhaps you have been feeling ill lately and desperately need a cure to what ails you? It might be time for a spiritual talk with the leader you most admire or respect.
Studies have shown that there is some healing power attached to a talk with God. It is the power of faith and belief that give a boost to at least the sense of healing and these feelings can be both positive and negative - depending on the context of the conversation. A real spiritual talk can lift one up and boost both morale and the overall well-being of the recipient.
"When I am asked whether religious healing works, my answer usually goes something like this: People we meet in communities around the world say that religious practices have healed them,and I am inclined to accept what they say at face value. Along the same lines, I point out, people in communities around the world say that ritual practices involving sorcery, cursing, and the evil eye have hurt them, and I am equally inclined to accept what those people say at face value." - Susan Sered on What Religion Teaches about Healing, and What Healing Teaches about Religion.
So if you are feeling down and out... maybe try getting a lift from one of your favorite religious icons. Pray to God or your Prophet and ask for assistance in feeling better. Ask this religious leader what you can do to feel better and what will help you get back on the track to good health - you might be surprised at the outcome. If you are feeling a little hesitant or do not know or understand religion seek out assistance from a local religious order you most identify with - the religious officials at churches, mosques, and synagogues are always available to assist you.
The best of luck on your spiritual journey and I wish you the very best of health and life!
