Why Talk Therapy Cannot Fix Your Spiritual Burnout and The Crown Chakra Solution

Send us your thoughts!

You would never let a patient ignore a gaping wound, and you would never let a client starve themselves. So why are you committing that exact violence against your own soul every single day?

Today, the doctor becomes the patient. We aren't talking about skipping lunch; we are talking about "Pathological Altruism"—the medical and caregiving training that taught you to view your own survival as secondary. If you feel cynical, hollow, and like you are just a "body" doing a job rather than a soul living a life, you aren't just burned out. You are suffering from Spiritual Depletion, and no amount of sleep or standard talk therapy will fix it because the wound is in your spirit, not your mind.

In this episode, Dr. Julie performs an emergency intervention on your self-neglect. You will discover why your Crown Chakra is blocked (and why that makes you feel so profoundly alone). We explore how to reverse the "martyrdom" programming of your professional training and introduce the "White Light Shower"—a visualization technique to wash away clinical sterility. It is time to remember that you are a miracle, not a machine.

You cannot heal the world if you are broken. Press play to learn how to treat yourself with the same reverence you give to strangers.

This podcast supports women healers over 50 navigating burnout, compassion fatigue, and midlife transitions with strategies for nervous system regulation, trauma-informed boundaries, and chakra alignment to heal resentment and self-neglect while cultivating soul joy, radiance, and a purposeful next chapter of freedom and inner peace.

We are tackling the epidemic ofself neglect.
You need to listen to the end ofthis episode because I'm going
to explain why your self neglectisn't a lack of discipline.
It's actually a lack ofspiritual connection.

(01:33):
We're opening the crown chakra.
When this is blocked, you feelcynical, you feel disconnected,
you feel like you are mm, just abody doing a job.
Rather than a soul living alife, and I'm teaching you the
white light shower, this is avisualization to wash away the

(01:58):
clinical stale stair T.
This is a visualization to washaway that sterile clinical piece
and to help you reconnect toyou.
And your divine purpose.

(02:19):
Okay, let's look at thepsychology here.
This is a concept calledpathological altruism.
This is what we were trained forin medical school and nursing
supervision and our clinicalsupervisions.

(02:40):
We are trained to view our needsas secondary.
We wear our exhaustion like abadge of honor.
But biologically, if theorganism and that's you, isn't
nourished, it dies.
And I'm not just talking aboutphysical death y'all.

(03:02):
I'm talking about spiritualburnout.
This happens when you lose faithin the healing process itself
because you are so depleted.
You stop believing that changeis possible because you feel so
stuck.

(03:24):
This spiritual depletion livesin your crown chakra.
It's at the top of your head.
This is your connection to thedivine, to source to God, to
whatever you call it.
When you neglect yourself, youare sending a message to the
universe.

(03:45):
You are saying that the divinespark within you isn't worth
saving.
You are saying you are amachine, not a miracle.
We need to reopen that channel.
We need to remind you that youare part of something bigger

(04:08):
than your to-do list.
Your worth is not tied to thework you do.
So here's the activity.
The white light shower, it'sgonna help reconnect.
So we're going to take a whitelight shower.

(04:31):
When you're able, I want you tosit comfortably and close your
eyes, and I want you to imaginea trap door opening at the very
top of your head.
Visualize a beam of pureiridescent white light pouring
down from the universe Y.

(04:53):
It's warm, it's healing.
Feel it.
Enter your skull.
Feel it washed down your neck,into your heart, down your arms,
and into your hands.
Imagine it pushing out gray,stagnant energy of the hospital

(05:16):
or the clinic.
Watch that gray energy leavethrough the soles of your feet.
Let the light feel you until youare glowing.
Remind yourself, I am not just aworker.

(05:36):
I am a vessel.
You cannot heal the world if youare not connected.
You must treat yourself with thesame reverence as you treat
those you take care of.
You need to know what yourarchetype is, so I need for you
