Good luck to you out there, we can get through this ❤️❤️❤️

      It is the toughest thing a human can go through. Through your pain, you will only grow resilience - a positive of the pain. Remember to try to compartmentalise certain situations or things that make you feel so depressed. Acknowledge them, put them in a box, don’t ignore them, just say ‘I will deal with these things at a later date. Hopefully this will allow you to get on with your day in a somewhat more pleasant state of mind. Love to all who suffer this horrible disease, we can get through it

    If you are reading this, just know the bad times will pass. I’ve been going through depression episodes for a few years now, and nothing has made me feel better as quickly as meditation. I know it’s hard to focus when going through times like this, but everytime you start to think about or feel pain, recognize it, and let it out with your next breath.
    You got this! ❤

    I never understood what depression was and how it could truly affect someone’s mental state until I started to go through it. Even focusing on this video alone was hard because my mind was racing. I’m always tired even after getting enough sleep, my grades are dropping, and I don’t even have any energy to do the things that I love anymore. I’ve been so tied to my bed and constantly cancel on plans. However through it all I still have a little hope that things will get better if I reach out more to get better. If your reading this and you have felt or are currently feeling like this I want you to keep trying because even though you may not see any hope now trust me in the end there will be that light at the end and ur not alone.

    The influx of cortisol triggered by depression also causes the amygdala to enlarge. This is a part of the brain associated with emotional responses. When it becomes larger and more active, it causes sleep disturbances, changes in activity levels, and changes in other hormones.👍

      Sure, but when you're "doing nothing", you're probably not actually "doing nothing". Like he says in the meditation, depression is exhausting and really robs us of our energy. You're not "doing nothing." You're resting and healing. Be kind to yourself.

      I think "This will pass" part is true. It can take so long that you might think you'll never laugh again. But someday somehow it will pass. It can't go like this forever. About the "you are not alone" part. We should be realistic. Yes, you may not have friends or a supportive family. And people don't change very easily. But who knows, maybe you'll meet someone soon and she/he can bring a little light to your world. Try to stay strong and I know it's hard but please don't lose hope. There will be better days for sure, trust me. ♡

Sometimes I can't concentrate on the context of the video because I'm so engulfed in my dark cloud but something about your voice helps me come back to a place of self compassion and some clarity. Thank you for all that you do. I hope you know that you have helped me a lot and I keep coming back to this video. Sending you good vibes and best wishes. I hope anyone reading this knows that you are not alone, and keep practicing mindfulness.

    I had never been a meditating person. But few days I've tried these videos. And I have experienced something out of this world. It's like during meditation I go into this sort of peaceful place that I do not have to forcefully imagine. It just comes right up. It's like a green place with morning mist or a place in comfy home where there is breeze and in that moment I'm fully aware of my surroundings also and I'm there also. It's like I'm not distracted but I'm also in a place full of peace. It's surely a different experience which I cannot describe but it's true that in that moment I can feel each and every part of my body and my mind is just fresh as a daisy. No wonder people talk about meditation so much!

    • @pannkakan1986
      @pannkakan1986 2 года назад +2

      The good thing is that regular meditation can actually bring this sense of peace into your life when youre not meditating. It takes time though as the connections in your brain strengthens after each session but trust the process and eventually your "waking life" will be almost as peaceful as when youre meditating.
      (Im not a professional/expert in this subject but have done alot of research on this topic. It would take 10 hours to explain everything but that^ is a summary of a particular effect of daily meditation)

    I had to stop halfway because I suddenly felt scared that by “washing away” my depression I was simply delaying the inevitable. That it would come back and all I’ve done is put a blanket on top of it.
    Logically I know that feeling calm and at peace wouldn’t invalidate my pain. Just because I feel better now doesn’t mean I didn’t suffer… But the fear is still there.
    But I also left it running in the background and the calming music and voice helped me a little bit. Thank you.

    During this meditation i tried to hold back my tears and clear my mind but even without realising i was already crying again…and when i heard the words “you are not alone” i felt comforted. Its been a while since i heard those words.

    Thank you for this meditation, i struggled with depression for a long time, I recently had a relapse in depression since i stopped my antidepressants 2 and a half months ago. i restarted it and it's been about 3 weeks now. I do feel more concentration but still feel very depressed. This really helped. Depression feels so isolating, like i'm the only one in the world that feels like this. desperate, painful to be awake and know that you can't snap your fingers and it's gone. I am however hopeful that this will get better it did before and i lived thru it.
