I felt depressed this morning. What I am doing is, accept it, stop what I am doing, lay down on my back, put my hand on my stomach, where the feeling lives, close my eyes and give my body time and presence. Just be there for your feeling as if it was your best friend and let it express itself. After 10 to 30 minutes my body feels well again. Side effect is, you are not afraid of this feeling any longer and your love for yourself increases.

[@dwarslopers]

Cool! Independently this is what I realized too! It works the way, that nobody would stay happy forever, because he allows himself to be happy, that's why it disappears. The same works with bad feelings.

[@peayen5008]

Since recognising and becoming aware of my pain body, I can feel how it indulges, even loves, to wallow in self-pity and negativity -- truly like being in the grip of addiction!. And now, instead of becoming completely swallowed up by it, I can be aware of its presence and say to myself: I don't need to believe these thoughts, I'm just in a negative state right now. It'll pass.

[@mpspenguin]

One of my earliest memories is when my dad was trying to cheer me up, when I was 3 or 4. I was crying and he was making silly faces, and I couldn't help but start to laugh, and I angrily exclaimed "stop it! I'm happy being sad!" Which he of course thought was hilarious, but I'm amazed how relevant that insight has been into my adult life.

[@NothingByHalves]

My approach is to love the emotions that arise and allow them to play themselves out. Pushing them down only makes them pop back, but listening to them, accepting them, giving them permission to stay, helps them to dissolve. The emotions are telling us what is sitting in our subconscious mind - something that was programmed into us from the outside. They are connected to the beliefs we have about ourselves. Am I perfect at this? Far from it. but when I do sit with them, they heal.

@@JonKonik11 Reduce negative thoughts with a simple practice. Your breath and mind [brain] are closely related causing stress-anxiety. For a better life sit on a chair, back straight, eyes closed and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for 5-10-15 minutes or more. Don’t fight your thoughts. Slowly the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed. Do the practice without any expectations. Change happens by itself. Day or night, when taking a walk, sitting in a park, when reading, before sleep etc sit or lie down and observe your breath. Like me, make this a lifetime daily habit to have a good life.

That happens with me, too, on some of his teachings... I'll find myself thinking, well that part is too far out there, or doesn't apply to me...but them the light bulb may come on after hearing it again. I think that's normal...we spent a lifetime of some bad or harmful thinking patterns, so it's a journey to correct some of these patterns...it takes practice and patience with ourselves. I have gotten so much better as catching myself and stopping...when I find myself thinking up these detailed thoughts of how I will handle and react to some future possible event that has not happened and most likely won't. Over analyzing things that haven't happened...then stressing over the possible reactions. Even if what I'm worried about Actually happens, it's not as bad as the worrying about that thing! Nuts, right? :)

If I feel depressed i realize, that i don't want to feel that depressed feel. This adds some kind of extra pain to that feel, which makes the feel even more worse. Then, additional negative thoughts come up. For me the only way to get out of that situation is, stop doing and take the time, trying to 'enjoy' that feeling. Trying to get the connection back to the feeling, trying to come back to me as a feeling individual. If I succeed, I get some kind of freedom which hard to describe.

Yesterday I just bursted into tears! That negative voice started to paint all the sh*t that went wrong and how behind I am. But in that moment, I stopped and breathed, I said are you done now? Now let me speak. Yes, my biz is staring zeros in the bank, but wealth comes in different ways when we become conscious of it. I am wealthy to have given birth to 8 kids, at age of 33 that’s an accomplishment! And despite their hardship to raise them right, I’ve pursued to build something to make a difference to all of humanity. That’s an accomplishment!

What creates the most sadness and pain inside of me is the current suffering and condition of this world. The animals suffering in slaughter houses and other places, the human beings suffering from poverty and their own ego made suffering. The planet, nature suffering from abuse. I do my best not to dwell on these things, I am empathic. I do take actions to elevate the suffering of other beings and this helps me greatly. I want happiness for all life not just myself. I want the kingdom manifested on Earth. 🙂✨✨✨💖✨✨✨ All my love to you Eckhart.

I just want to say thst it is extremely difficult to practice awareness the moment you are in the black cave of your mind. No one can save you then. Maybe we can practicing the moments we are not that deep and then expand our thinking. Eckhart, I wish you find in your life all the enlightenment you are spreading. 🌼🌼🌼

Before I realized I had clinical depression, I would tell myself I shouldn't give any credence to negative thoughts. I could tell is was brain chemistry that set up a process that fed on itself.

When you are depressed, you simply are, the key word being "are'. I've noticed that years of it weren't really associated with my thoughts, although they existed, but rather to simply my body/self response to this cruel world. Everything makes me sad and low, and I can't stand the fact that I'm simply crawling in my skin to simply exist. I just want to feel some peace of mind but also and mostly of body.

[@teresamarieinbarrera6267]

I understand you when you say it feels that it doesn't feel like the depression is related to thoughts. I think after a while the thoughts solidify into attitudes and beliefs and it's hard to pinpoint when the sense of depression starts and what thought or attitude triggered it. But if you can isolate the thought or belief, it's almost always a dysfunctional one. David Burns and Byron Katie tell you to question your thoughts. Are you trying to predict the future, using black and white thinking, exaggerating and dramatizing the inevitable nuisances of life, ignoring all the good things? It's never a good idea to compare yourself with others, but there are probably thousands who would give anything to be in your circumstances. Your brain, eyes and hands were coordinated enough to compose a comprehensible comment and you're rich enough to have access to a device on which to send it. Believe me, l know you think/feel that you are ALWAYS unhappy, but l bet you could come up with a few moments of happy memories in your life if you really tried. I am over 70 and l have struggled with depression my whole life (there l go exaggerating again! I've had lots of happy times in my life.) but l just keep trying. Meds and therapy haven't really worked, nutrition and exercise aren't a cure either. I think it's just a mental, emotional and spiritual challenge we have to confront daily. But l feel like it is getting better, just a lot slower than l'd like. Many of these suggestions such as mindfulness meditation do improve things. Don't give up, tomorrow might be THE day that you meet someone or hear a word or see something that turns your whole life around! But in the meantime, try to enjoy the little things in the present moment: the breath you're taking without some machine, the education that enabled you to read this, your 5 senses, even if limited in some ways. I am saying these things to remind myself, not just to encourage you. Let's keep trying to get control of our thoughts, focusing them on fresh, positive things, not just glomming onto the stale, negative, lifeless ones. Keep looking...you will find your answer. You are loved, fellow human💞.

Thank you, Eckhart, for years (decades, really 🤪) of offering your ever so reliable and beautifully present voice of reason. Many blessings of abundance, love and light to you, Eckhart, and to all!

You have the power to change your circumstances. Guide your thoughts towards what you desire, not what you dont want.

Absolutely following this! Been depressed for many years when I was young and had to figure it out slowly myself....wish I know your wisdom back then, would have saved me years of unnecessary suffering 🕺🙏

S cribble, Enjoy the moments. Reduce negative thoughts with a simple practice. Your breath and mind [brain] are closely related causing stress-anxiety. For a better life sit on a chair, eyes closed and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for 5-10-15 minutes or more. Don’t fight your thoughts. Slowly the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed. Do the practice without any expectations. Change happens by itself. Day or night, when taking a walk, sitting in a park, when reading, before sleep etc sit or lie down and observe your breath. Like me, make this a lifetime daily habit to have a good life. Avoid constipation as it affects the mind instantly. Best wishes Shyaaam Sir. -Counsellor.

@@shyaaammeneen63 Thank you 👌💥🙏

[@shyaaammeneen63]

​@@rolandstolk Develop your mental muscles. Since many years I have made it a habit to observe my breath sensations even during my normal activities and I am feeling relaxed and healthy. The best part is nobody comes to now that you are doing the breath observing practice as there is no deep breathing or sound. Make a goal of 2-3 months when you are going to change your life and be more relaxed and happy. Avoid watching negative negative social media. Read my msg and do the practice regularly. Best wishes. Shyaaam Sir-Counsellor.

My pain body usually just feeds on my own thoughts. Thank God, I'm almost always at peace with other people.

[@christinestone3552]

Excellent thank you Eckhart 🙏

[@wildflowerwind6941]

Yes I think I am addicted to my unhappiness. And yes I think it is something deep down in the pain body. But I remember always feeling like this.

[@ClaudeC-fx7yp]

Wow 😳 thank you for opening my eyes 👀

[@lorriross3885]

One more thing as a true Eckhart and Jesus Godfather King believer, Eckhart has gotten more and more popular in a rapidway resulting in a rigorous schedule and pressure on him to produce and share more than ever. Stop judging the book because his cover is as true and adorable as his ever-loving heart! Thank you, L. Ross

Oh this has been me lately…and I am not enjoying it anymore. I guess that is a good sign. Thank you so much Eckhart 🙏

[@TheSilentAssasin2]

After 30+ years of suffering, this is the truth. It is very powerful what Eckhart is saying here. Dont dismiss it too quickly.

[@dvgs5375]

Thanks a lot Eckchart. Super, excellent. Well said by Eckhart Awareness of unconscious. My problem is when I am in depressed and pain body arises, I could not come out. Couldn’t come out of it
