Soothing Activities: Their Effects on Stress, Emotions and Well-being

How can a repetitive action be liberating and bring us back to a calmer life?

As mentionned in the news (read RTS article of 19 April 2026), certain simple activities — such as knitting, crocheting or other repetitive gestures — have recently been highlighted for their soothing effects on the nervous system. They allow us to slow down, re-centre and calm inner agitation.

But beyond this soothing effect, there is a reality that very few people have been able to understand today.

Every person who practises an activity requiring inner concentration finds themselves, at a certain moment, in a state where the mind becomes still. This slowing down allows access to a different, higher state of consciousness.

Many human beings thus experience meditative moments without being fully aware of it — whether while cooking, running, walking... These are also propitious moments for receiving visions, feelings, or personal reflections that foster inner evolution.

This is a real power, for these states naturally draw us back toward a path of peace.

Understanding What Limits This Access

Concretely, a soul that has never been marked by emotional suffering will not take anything personally. It will evolve with a form of natural inner stability, free of the behavioural patterns that hinder growth.

However, the majority of us carry past experiences — whether from this life or others — in which emotional memories have not been released. These imprints, linked to traumas, grief or wounds, continue to influence our reactions and our perception today.

Over time, and through a broader opening of knowledge, certain individuals (such as Dr Jung, Dr Freud, Dr Einstein) came to understand that it was possible to access higher states of consciousness — similar to those we experience between waking and sleep, or during moments of deep presence.

It is in these states that some people begin to perceive subtle information, receive visions, or sense the presence of departed loved ones or spiritual guides drawing close to them.

The Role of the Emotional State

What prevents most people from fully accessing these states is not a lack of ability, but an emotional state weakened by the past.

When experiences have not been released, they create mental blockages. In short, the emotional body lodged within the aura becomes dim — the aura contracts, remains closer to the physical body, and the vital energy of the human being is weakened.

This can manifest concretely as:

• greater physical and mental fatigue
• a weakened immune system
• an absence of mediumistic senses
• a blocked energetic system that also prevents the release of buried emotions

Rediscovering a Favourable State of Being

This is why returning to natural, soothing and nourishing environments plays an essential role.

Many figures who attained a certain inner balance — such as Yeshua, Buddha and others — sought out quiet places, often in nature (bodies of water, waterfalls, forests, energetic wells), to reconnect with themselves and access a greater capacity to sense the spiritual world and receive deeper understanding.

These moments make it easier to revisit past experiences, gain perspective and better understand what has been lived through. They also allow luminous guides to lift the shadow aspects when we return to the moments that once wounded us.

A Personal Path

Personally, this journey led me to reconnect with natural places — in particular near oak trees, known for their particular energy.

It was in these moments that I was able to sense astral communications, receive visions and be guided in certain important decisions in my life.

This allowed me to:

• become aware that my fiancé was still close to me
• understand that he could perceive space-times of the future, the present moment and the past — for he had lived alongside me the activation of his Kundalini and had experienced illumination
• seek the method to lift my 5 great soul wounds, which were still preventing me from hearing and seeing him more clearly
• understand my life path

This process helped me gain a deeper understanding of human behaviour and to recognise that behind every wound lies a suffering that has not been released, not yet brought to awareness — along with particular events that reinforce these 5 soul wounds and also prevent us from understanding what is taking place in the astral.

The Key: Revisiting in Order to Release

Returning to a higher state of being involves:

• stillness
• deep breathing
• a soothing environment
• olfactory and musical choices, or anything that brings calm to our nervous system

But to truly release what is anchored at depth, it is necessary to revisit these moments. These emotional imprints, frozen in time, must be revisited by ourselves — when we are ready to take that step. From there, the luminous guides will also perceive these images emerging from our subtle body and will be able to push them out of us. Without becoming aware of what has truly led us into life choices that wounded our being, we cannot improve our future.

Opening the Mind

Keeping an open mind also means accepting the exploration of other approaches, trying new methods and questioning the old beliefs deeply anchored within us.

Personally, I began from a very low energetic state, with no particular perception. It was through seeking, observing life and others — certain behaviours of whom made no logical sense whatsoever — that I was able to evolve. My research, as well as conversations with mental health professionals, also led me toward interesting avenues.

I eventually came to understand that these doctors were offering theories that could improve our understanding of ourselves — but that at a certain point, they had not themselves been able to go far enough to transmit a key that would allow me to truly emerge from my deepest pains, or to step out of these recurring patterns. Remaining in a purely mental approach, or evolving while staying within the understanding of what were formerly negative circumstances — which also meant choosing to be happy or sad — did not allow me to free myself in a lasting way.

Maintaining constant self-control in order to live better, choosing to remain anchored in the theory of not returning to the past but of enjoying only the present moment (or even taking refuge in it), or sustaining a solely mental commitment proved insufficient to emerge from these deep afflictions — the ones that bring us back to reliving betrayal and the other soul wounds. With these theories, I nonetheless continued to relive betrayal, injustice, humiliation, rejection and abandonment — until the day I could bear it no longer.

It was by going beyond these approaches that I was able to advance in my research and discover the one method capable of freeing every soul — departed or incarnated — from limiting beliefs, of no longer living in these intense afflictions, of living fully and with the certainty that even if an external event were to come to me, I would no longer be driven by these old fears. On the contrary, I live well and at ease, even without income or other circumstances that may have been brought to me.

This path allowed me to undergo a profound inner and energetic transformation, while remaining true to who I am: a person in search of peace — for herself and for others. And so today, I also help disincarnated beings to experience these liberations.

An Individual Responsibility

This journey also brings us back to a personal responsibility.

Each person, at their own level, can choose to evolve, to understand their own mechanisms and to transform what needs to be transformed.

Life is made of choices, and some lead us toward greater light, awareness and rightness. Being human is not only about enjoying life, but also about remaining committed to one's personal evolution and preserving what is most precious to us: a planet, along with the other systems and species that allow our own survival.

Remaining true to oneself means adhering to a deep respect for oneself, and also for those who share life with us. Collective flourishing unfolds on many levels, and we are responsible for the imbalances we generate on this planet.

We still live fixed in the idea that we will all ultimately die — which remains an illusion. When one perceives the departed, one also comes to understand that to this day, the only place where we all share our lives is this blue Earth.

How Do We Preserve Our Humanity and Our Environment?

We have no other choice but to find a path that allows us to preserve a balanced life, while developing our capacity to create solutions for the future. This also involves limiting decisions made under the influence of deep pain and ego-centred functioning — fear-driven responses that leave little room for the preservation of the natural spaces essential to certain civilisations.

The only path remains inner work, introspection and the liberation of the great soul wounds through methods that dissolve energetic imprints. This process helps us to no longer take things personally, to remain in trust, and to step out of the fears that were preventing us from building lasting solutions — or from guiding groups toward greater harmony.

And for those most resistant: be visionaries for your own children, or for those you love. Remaining in behaviours born of unreleased wounds risks amplifying difficulties in the generations to come. Without this understanding and this work, they may not find the resources they need to move forward — whether emotionally, physically or economically.

Taking responsibility for one's own imbalances is essential. An adult remains responsible for their children, even when those children become adults themselves.

In Conclusion

Preserving moments for your own well-being — whether through knitting, fishing, painting, DIY, forest bathing, a session at the thermal baths or sauna, or through breathwork, hypnosis or meditation — these choices will ease your life.

These moments will allow you to re-centre, to enter more readily into introspection, and ultimately to release your shadow aspects with the help of my luminous allies. (Invoke them before engaging in these activities. They are not available at every moment or at the last second. They are not present everywhere in the astral world — unless certain guides have led mediums who cannot see them with their own eyes to believe otherwise. Some of these highly recognised beings are former husbands, fathers, brothers, friends — and I know very well their capacity to come to us, or not.)

By opening yourself to a method that soothes both body and mind, and by connecting with luminous presences, you gain access to precious support for your balance and your mental health.

I thank RTS for this fascinating subject around mental health, which sheds light on the many paths available to each of us for finding our way back to greater peace.
