Depression is a sign that you need to change your lifestyle





How to get over Depression

1.   Do Yoga and more Yoga. It is the Best Antidepressant with no side effects. I am speaking through experience. Whenever I feel lethargic and down, a little yoga quickly brings me to high spirits.

2.  Laugh and laugh until laugh comes out naturally. Look at yourself in the mirror and laugh. Initially you will have to force yourself to laugh. Keep laughing and one day laugh will come out easily from the core of your being. For me, it happened on the fifth day when I was about to give up. Since then I have been able to laugh like a kid and laugh for no reason.

3.  Let go of attachment because nothing is permanent. It is difficult and painful but it is the only way we can grow and find happiness again. A deep understanding of impermanence is the key.

4. Take a shower and cry your heart out. Tears are a gift given to us to release negative emotions and free ourselves of sadness. A good cry under the shower will wash away most of the pains you have been carrying in your heart and make you feel much much lighter.

5.  Feel good and smile often even if you don’t feel like smiling. Research says that smiling can trick your brain into believing you’re happy which can then spur actual feelings of happiness. So fake it till you make it.

6.  Promise to love yourself and DO IT. Self- love is the Road to Recovery. Leave aside all the conditioning and start loving yourself. You need you more than you need anyone else.

Repeat this for 10 days and you will come out a new being with new life.

Blessings, Inusha
