Kissing the Black Dog - To Be, or Not To Be - Depressed

Jul 1, 2015 at 06:06


Depression is a choice. Well that stopped a lot of people from reading any further, how dare I tell someone their depression of their own choosing. If you have read this far i have some great news for you. You have already begun to heal the symptoms normally called depression. Taking some time to research and explore the health basics it soon becomes obvious that water, pH and oxygen all contribute. Throw a healthy dose of gratitude into the mix and recovery will be so sweet.


This article may seem frivolous, what if that is what it takes to give up the belief you are depressed, damaged in some way or worse broken. Like most practitioners I care deeply about a person's recovery and fully appreciate that some wish to hang their fears on a label. I also am aware that more and more people want to hang their health on good natural wholistic healing.


I can remember a time in my time my self confidence had prummeted to rock bottom. I felt worthless, useless, i had no belief in myself. One morning I woke and decided i was OK, even when I was not OK. From that moment onwards my recovery was swift and powerful. I made the decision to change my situation. I could have easily believed in a mythical diagnosis and given the power of my recovery over to a stranger.


Instead i simply changed my mind, my thoughts and began to believe in me. No medication, no drugs, just plain garden variety common sense. The label depression would have be easy to have hung around my neck. In truth, i bought into other peoples negative beliefs about me and stopped listened to the inner voice who is always own our side.


Whenever i speak on creative solutions to depression and anxiety someone will approach me and ask how i managed my depression. Some become very hostile when i tell them i have been down, had negative thinking and been dehydrated and acidic, but i have never been clinically depressed. People seem not to realise i never talk much about depression, it is too depressing. I always look at the positive creative solutions.


I walked out of my delusion of being worthless and did the hard yards to bring myself back to a state of healthy optimism. Kissing the Black Dog offers hope to those who know there is a better way, for those who want to believe in their intrinsic self worth. Each person has a gift to make a healthy positive contribution. Regrettably some take to the grave unopened.


Take heart, there is a way out of the dark, sometimes all it takes is a good dose of gratitude and one foot after the other past the water jug, around and away from the sugars and deep relaxed breathing along the way.
