There's an expression in the Mental Health field: "Flight Into Health."  It describes a sense that dramatic improvement in a person's level of mental well-being can't last.  People are often confounded when others have an insight that results in a shift in consciousness — for example, realizing that they are spending a great deal of time analyzing their negative thoughts, thus becoming mired in them.  If they set themselves free from that habit as a result of that insight, their level of well-being shifts.  It is a true shift into a higher level of understanding that is life-changing.
