Nowadays, stressful situations are everywhere, so it is important to to get through the storm by being as kind to ourselves as possible. Having battled severe depression and anxiety for my entire adult life, there are a few ways that were taught to me, that truly do help even those of us with more severe issues. Of all the depression therapy techniques I learned, guided imagery has been the most effective.

Within every person suffering from depression, is the ability and resources effectively to treat the condition. Unfortunately, the medical and pharmaceutical have taught us otherwise. For a start, creating a positive attitude is the most effective prevention and treatment for depression. A sense of humor, optimism and a positive attitude can break through the worst cases of depression. Humor releases substances into the blood that relax the body and mind. Whereas a positive and optimistic attitude creates a clear mind devoid of unnecessary worries and anxieties. This makes it easy to differentiate between the present and what is being imported from the past.

Guided imagery is a way of calming your mind, by listening to positive meditations that walk you through peaceful scenarios, imprinting uplifting affirmations to make you feel serene and more emotionally grounded. Simply put, it fills your mind with pleasant thoughts, to counteract and replace all the negativity that is bringing your mood down.

Guided imagery is a clinically proven, psychologist-recommended course of action against everything from depression, anxiety, weight-loss, pain, and other conditions. It is not about religion or chanting mantras, rather, the techniques used in it are carefully researched and planned by trained mental health professionals. Some recordings that are available for sale may contain subliminal messages, meant to give you deeper impact. In those, there are extra messages hidden in the recordings that may help you to absorb the peaceful messages even quicker. Subliminals have helped me a lot. It’s similar to hypnosis but not quite the same. You aren’t in a trance, just a deep relaxation mode that you can take yourself out of at any time.

When you feel really torn up and worn out by anxiety, it’s your job to fight it as hard as you can, with every resource available to you. Not fighting can make the mind start to “blank out,” be less efficient (especially at work) and feel numb or “frozen.” Avoid this by trying different relaxation techniques. Take it from someone who has spent over thirty years learning how to fight these things by reading books, going to therapy and other means; guided imagery can help you. It doesn’t have to be done every day, just do it whenever you feel down and need a lift. Try it, and relieve yourself of built-up tension, it does a body and soul good.

We live in a society that focuses on appearance. Beautiful and skinny people are accorded an elevated and lofty standing. Because of the importance placed on beauty and weight, many people are willing to sacrifice their health to realize a goal of thinness and perfection. The impact of these misplaced priorities has been substantial. People that do not meet the accepted standards for attractiveness suffer. Jobs may be lost to applicants perceived as more attractive. Dating is more challenging. Even friendships can be harder to develop. This can often result in poor body image and low self esteem. Consequently, many people take drastic efforts to conform more closely to the accepted level of attractiveness. Plastic surgery and expensive skin procedures have become acceptable and sometimes expected. Health is disregarded and has become an acceptable sacrifice in the pursuit of beauty. Even though the risks are well-known and the cost substantial, the number of people that are undergoing these chancy procedures are staggering. People, especially women, are willing to accept the costs, financial and otherwise. But is it really worth it? Diet and exercise is not the easiest route to pursue. You do have to sacrifice time, energy, effort, and yes even some of your favorite foods. But, unlike plastic surgery, the results are always worth the cost. What you get out of it far outweighs what you have to put in to it. Eating right and exercising will keep your body functioning properly and the results will be reflected in your appearance. Your skin will look healthy. Your metabolism will increase. And the results will persist as long as you do.
