Taking a sacred ritual approach to mental illness 
rather than regarding the person as a 
pathological case gives the person affected–and 
indeed the community at large–the opportunity to 
begin looking at it from that vantage point too, 
which leads to “a whole plethora of opportunities 
and ritual initiative that can be very, very 
beneficial to everyone present,” states. Dr. Somé.
