A Guided Meditation to Help Relieve Depression- Guided Imagery to Reduce Negative Thinking, Self-Criticism, Discouragement, and Improve Mood, Hope, Sense of Well Being
This depression meditation reduces depressive symptoms - negative thinking, loss of energy, excessive self-criticalness, general discouragement, lack of motivation and loss of hope - and improves quality of life and sense of well-being. The guided imagery for depression can be used as a stand-alone therapy or an adjunctive treatment alongside more traditional approaches of psychotherapy and/or medication. It has even been found helpful to people dealing with bipolar illness. Guided imagery is a holistic, mind-body technique that consists of healing words and hypnotic images, set to soothing music, to help with treating depression naturally. Repeated listening once or twice a day for 2-3 weeks ensures maximum impact. A separate track of affirmations shows how to relax in a briefer format, with positive statements designed for listening on the go or even while driving. Written and narrated by noted mind-body, holistic health pioneer Belleruth Naparstek and scored to the exquisite, immersive music of Steven Mark Kohn. The soothing, hypnotic narrative invites imagery of the heavy fog of depression lifting, as tamped down energy is liberated and released, so that you can reunite with your own inner strength and again feel hope, love, motivation and possibility. For those who wish to try treating depression naturally, before turning to medication with side effects, this is worth a try. (Running Time: 44 min).
