After realizing that other therapists don\u2019t consider their clients\u2019 astrological charts when drawing up a treatment plan, Debra understood why therapy was not successful for many people. Debra explains that by not integrating astrological charts into a treatment plan, a therapist may try to get their clients to change in ways that are fundamentally opposite of where the stars intended them to be. By using astrology as a tool in her practice, Debra is able to help clients find acceptance, discover their purpose, and befriend their own souls.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Tune into this week\u2019s episode of Christi\u2019s Couch for a conversation about the intricate world of astrology. Learn how understanding your birth chart can teach you about yourself, your purpose, and the world around you.&amp;nbsp; Quotes&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;\u201cIf you put your soul in the front seat, rather than letting your ego drive your ship, then there's a tandem practice going on. It's like a bicycle built for two, but you can't live without your ego period.\u201d (39:10-39:26) \u201cYou have to look at your life to determine \u2018what did your soul sign up for?\u2019 And then you need to accept it and stop trying to change it. If therapists let their clients be who they are, and not instruct them to be like them, there would be a great ease.\u201d (41:12-41:33) \u201cI feel like my contribution to this ridiculous time we're living in is to give people back a sense of self-love. It's the medicine that we're all starving for.\u201d (48:47-48:57) \u201cWe get programmed with some kind of hardwired for what normal is, which is a setting on the dryer. I have not met normal yet.\u201d (1:04:46-51:04:55) Connect with Debra Silverman&amp;nbsp; Instagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/debrasilverman_astrology\/ Youtube:  https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UC8h-BJfBv-DzhaUSg_IJzFg?view_as=subscriber Website: https:\/\/debrasilvermanastrology.com\/ Facebook:  https:\/\/web.facebook.com\/debrasilvermanastrology?_rdc=1&amp;amp;_rdr &amp;nbsp;Freebies:&amp;nbsp;  https:\/\/debrasilvermanastrology.com\/freepodcastgift-jp &amp;nbsp;http:\/\/debrasilvermanastrology.com\/freegift    Get on the waitlist for the 5-Day Keys to Unlocking Your Dream Life Workshop HERE&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;  FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM  CHECK OUT MY TIK TOK  WATCH MY LATEST YOUTUBE VIDEO If you've benefited from this episode be sure to tag me  @christilukasiak on Instagram and share this episode with your community to spread the word!
