Depression - what is the best way to overcome it?
Even if we have a very positive outlook on Life and the purpose of our existence in the Universe, we still feel depressed from time to time. Are these "depressions" necessary? What is the best way to overcome them?
Do you remember the Universal Law of contrasts? We need to become intimately familiar with a wide range of contrasting feelings, especially the extremes. How else could we make conscious CHOICES without knowing possibilities and their consequences?
All feelings, including `depression` are states of our OWN intellect, even though they frequently seem `provoked` or `induced` by other people or circumstances.
Recognizing, coping with and analyzing REASONS for our own feelings are major challenges for our intellect. In fact, they constitute one of the most effective method to explore and know the SELF.
Analyze REASONS and exact MECHANISMS of your depression. How is it induced? WHY is it SO unpleasant? WHY it is SO difficult to overcome? Are there any BARRIERS that you create YOURSELF? All answers are WITHIN.
Depressions seem to FORCE us to study ourselves and our own feelings. They are unpleasant, but they succeed to attract our conscious ATTENTION. Their function for our intellect seems similar to the function of PAIN for the physical body (certain body part requires our attention). Depressions expose those unexplored and/or neglected corners of our consciousness that require some homework.
Is there anything we can do to assist ourselves in the task of overcoming our depressive states? I am sure that you will agree, that in a state of depression our emotions dominate our mind. How can we bring our logic, intellect and rational thinking back into balance with disturbing emotions?
The Exercise with the cross described in "The Freedom of Choice" has been found spectacularly effective in bringing activities of both hemispheres of our brain into BALANCE.
By balancing activities of both hemispheres of our brain - we gradually increase our awareness to the point that we see rational and logical solutions to our depression OURSELVES. Just 5 minutes of this exercise will bring your depression into entirely different context. Try it out. You will be amazed how effective it is and how PERMANENT are its results.
Online version of this exercise is called "Exercise 2" at http://www.thiaoouba.com/seeau.htm
At Bioresonant, we also found that colors, that we surround ourselves with, can play an important role in inducing and maintaining depressive states. Imagine that you painted every room in your house DARK GREY or any other murky color. How would it "feel"? Have you noticed how do you feel on a "gray and cloudy day"? Do you see the connection?
What is the opposite, positively stimulating direction? We call it "Bioresonant" and we recommend wearing it. Surround yourself with perpetually stimulating color patterns and see the difference for yourself.
