Natural Treatments for Depression
Notice that we don’t use the word cures on this post because there is no cure for depression. In fact, we will all get depressed in our lives, it’s inevitable. When it occurs often or it’s constant and lasts a long time and the depression scale is deep, we need help. Here are some things that you can do to help yourself.
1. Your physiology is absolutely attached to your mood. If you don’t believe this, then I would suggest that you observe people (that’s right, become a watcher) and you can probably detect who’s depressed and who’s happy. So, for starters, I would suggest that you do the following each and every day. Whether you walk to work or drive, try to walk at least 200 yards each morning in which you engage in the following:
- Allow your shoulders to be as tall as they can be
- Allow your back to be as straight as it can be
- Take long and certain steps
- Allow your arms to swing as much as possible.
- Smile ear to ear so that the corners of your mouth almost touch your ears
Because when you are smiling, it’s almost impossible to be depressed. If you are depressed and smiling, than you are probably insane or encountering dark, deep thoughts which belong on another blog.
In addition:
1. Do some form of exercise 3 days a week.
2. Avoid excessive alcohol, sugar or caffeine.
3. Take a multi-vitamin each day.
If you follow these routines each and every day and you and 10 friends are regularly depressed, you won’t have 10 depressed friends within a short period of time.
