I Feel So Disconnected From The World And Other Human Beings

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Gayatri.

Gayatri: Please help me. I feel so lost and disconnected from the world, from all other human beings in my life, and human beings in general. This came on me all of a sudden during the COVID pandemic and it’s gotten worse since then.

Council: We’d like to point out here that since the COVID epidemic, a lot of people are going through this, are feeling lost, don’t know how to go back to feeling their old self, or a feeling of being a better self. And it’s all part of the energy in your world, the way it’s creating getting ready to help you through what’s coming up next in your reality.

And so there are many, many people that are depressed, that are feeling alone, that are feeling they’re not even in their own body and they don’t know who they are anymore. This is very common. It’s just showing you that you are very sensitive to energy and you’re picking up other things you’re not used to that are uncomfortable, and so you feel lost.

There’s one way to get through this. Instead of worrying about everything, you now concentrate on you, on reconnecting to you. We’d say every day, even if it’s for a minute, go very close to your mirror and just stare into your eyes. You don’t have to say anything, you don’t have to think anything, just look in your eyes. You’ll begin to feel the part of you, the spirit, that’s within you. It’s taking care of you and reconnecting. Just concentrate on you for now. Start that way.

You’re what they call a traveling spirit, a spirit that’s so sensitive, that’s being bombarded by these other energies. And so it makes you feel not attached to anything. And we can assure you you’re still attached. You are a spirit. You are still you. Go back and find you. Just start by looking in your eyes.

Gayatri: I’ve always thought of myself as a caring and kind soul that sought to connect with source, or God, and all other beings in the loving oneness that exists in the universe. But now I feel like I can’t even think about or feel things, or do things that most normal human beings can. I desperately want to be able to connect with the feeling of all forms of love and empathy, but I find I can’t even take care of myself or anyone else.

Council: You can’t find the words right now to connect with anybody. The only way you can begin this is to take each person you know, one at a time, and as a spirit tell them you send them love, even if you can’t feel a thing. And we want you to say this to the other spirits, even strangers on the street. Look at them. You are a spirit, you know they’re a spirit, and we’re all connected.

And how do you do this? Without words. How would you tell someone you love them without words? How would you feel it within you? Let them know without words that you love them, that you are love. Go for the feeling, not for the words. It’s a hard exercise, but you will grow in leaps and bounds.

Gayatri: I can’t even trust how I process my world with my own body and mind. I really desperately need some answers soon, as I don’t want to lose everyone I’ve held dear in my life: my dear husband, my Dad and family, my husband’s family, and friends. I’ve lost my health, I can’t sense anything normally, or trust what my body is feeling. My oral health and digestive system are awful, and so is my nervous system. My overall body health has become terribly out of shape. I can’t even feel the joy or concrete effects of any exercise.

Council: Your body will react to your thoughts. Your thoughts build your body and build your life. So feeling so confused and out of sorts, your body won’t know how to respond and will not know how to keep itself well. It is confused. It’s the chaos and the loss of not feeling connected. And so again we say, the answer to this is to reconnect with yourself.

Once you start being able to look in your eyes and recognize yourself, little by little you’ll start to feel better, or we’d say align. Your body will align with your thoughts and your health will improve. It’s the thoughts that will get you there. It takes discipline, it takes practice, but if this is what you want – and apparently it is because you’ve created this – you wanted to take this road, this path, to learn how to change everything.

Gayatri: I can’t feel pain, and it goes on: my job, or my ability to even feel like I can do any sort of meaningful work or job again, my purpose, and my will to take care of myself in any way. And I feel so distraught about not having feelings like empathy, or love, or truly feeling sad and crying, or truly feeling joyful and laughing, and authentically bonding with and relating to others. And not looking forward to or being able to create all the wonderful experiences every human being seeks, like romantic love, general love for humanity, traveling, cooking, laughing with and enjoying time with others, being supportive of others, etc.

Council: Being supportive of others, understanding others, connecting with others, the focus in that is on others. The way you heal this and the way you change this is by focusing on yourself and reconnecting with yourself, even if you have to pretend. Let me see if I have a memory. Can I remember something that made me laugh, something that I enjoyed doing in my past, or make something up that you’d like to do in the future?

But the main thing, if you can not do that, is to find a way to look in that mirror every day. And you can do it for a while and feel absolutely nothing. Again, this needs focus, this needs time. And when you keep looking in your eyes, looking for who you really are – which is spirit, and love, and light – you will find it. Things will change. It’s the law of the universe. What you look for you will find.

Gayatri: I really love my amazing and wonderful husband…

Council: Wonderful.

Gayatri: …who is like an angel. Possibly he’s a Pleiadian.

Council: Now do you see? You feel love. You feel it for your husband, so you can feel it when you choose to look for it. Y0u can.

Gayatri: But right now he’s the only person I can even spend time with without feeling completely fearful, inadequate, and like some sort of strange monster that’s reviled by others for being so different from them. I’ve isolated myself from so many people I love and care about. I also feel so bad and awful that I can’t connect deeply with my husband, even though I really deeply want to…

Council: You must connect with yourself first. And you will connect with your husband again.

Gayatri: …and that he has to live with this disconnected and lost energy from me. There’s really so much to describe, but I’m overall very concerned about not being human, and not being able to live a normal human life, or authentically relate to other human beings.

Council: You are human. You are living a human life with challenges, but more than that, you are spirit, and you are so powerful. You have no idea what you can create until you decide to create it, until you decide to connect with who you truly are, to see who you really are. That is your goal, that is your focus. When you reconnect with that, or find the connection because you’re not disconnected, you’re just not feeling it. And you’re not feeling it because of what’s going on in this incarnation for you.

But it’s exactly what you wanted, and you wanted to find a way to change it, and you will. If you do the work, you will. Forget everybody else – being nice, being connected to everybody else. Find you. You are the answer.

Gayatri: I feel so desperate, fearful, negative, manipulative, and I can’t recognize or stand the person I’ve become.

Council: This is something that, in your reality they’ve put it in a category as, you’re a lost soul and you’re experiencing what they call the dark night of the soul. And that’s only happening because you want the experience, the wonderful experience of finding yourself again.

Gayatri: Please, I feel so desperate and hopeless, and really don’t want to fall into a life of despair, wandering the Earth and beyond as a homeless lost soul, terrified of living a dark and despairing existence. I can’t even attend my husband’s family’s upcoming Christmas Eve or Christmas Day celebrations without feeling extremely anxious and scared that I’m not normal, and can’t act normal around them.

Council: You are normal, and this we can promise you. If you do the work, you can change this.

What a brave soul you are to have chosen this experience. And why do you choose this? You chose this because you’re teaching the people around you that see what you’re going through. When you start pulling yourself out of it, they will see it, and it will help them in their life and what they’re going through.

So it was a great courageous decision to go through this. But what you do will affect others, and it’s a wonderful thing. And when you come back into spirit, you want to talk about it with all the other spirits. You want to tell them what it felt like so that we here learn from what you’ve gone through. You are a wonderful teacher to us.

Gayatri: Please, please, I’d appreciate any guidance you may have as soon as possible. I’m hoping even before this upcoming Christmas Eve.

Thank you for all the kind and caring guidance you’ve provided for others. Although I’ve read this guidance, I’m really finding it difficult to focus on positive thoughts without the authentic, deep feelings and emotions that normally come with these thoughts.

Council: The emotions will come. Try to imagine what it would feel like to feel happy again. And even if you can’t feel it, think it. Wow, I’m happy again. I choose to be happy. I choose to connect to myself. I choose to teach the others around me and from my experience. I will grow. I will feel wonderful again, and you will do it.

Remember the thoughts, remember the words, they follow each other. The body will follow what you think and what you say. So you have all the power that you need to change this.
