I am more encouraged by people feeling depressed than I am with someone who is blissfully undaunted by current events in the world. If you are depressed, it means you are tapped into the collective and you feel the plight of others, even if you don’t see their faces or hear their stories. You have compassion for an unknown tragedy. That is fertile ground to embrace the expansiveness of who you are.
If you have trouble getting out of bed in the morning, maybe you spent your night holding the hand of children who were poisoned in war or comforting the grieving on the other side of the world. Maybe you were holding up hope for the discouraged. If you awaken with some of the dust of their anguish upon your brow, so be it. It is better to taste their tears than feel the cruel sting of indifference.
Medicate if you must. Or just be reassured that there are eddies in the different currents of life that take place beyond your four walls. You, in your sensitivity, can soar beyond the wall of linear mediocrity to hold out a hand to others crying out for help. Or offer the warmth of an embrace to someone who is desperate for some human kindness.
Perhaps wear your depression as homage to those who will never have the luxury of worrying about a mood disorder in this lifetime. They may be too busy scratching in the dirt for food, huddled together for safety, or on a trek with no end trying to find a place they can call home.
Depression? I am more skeptical of those who do not feel depression or anxiety of some kind. What I really wish is that there was a medication for those who are apathetic to the anguish of others. Those who advocate for power with little concern about the outcome–I wish there was a pill for them if only they would take it.
When someone goes into depression, it can be so subtle that they don’t even realize it is happening. Depression is the quicksand of our emotional wellbeing. One moment, we feel like we are on solid footing. The next moment, the very ground seems to be sinking below us.
There are clinical reasons for depression that are well documented. But what if the clinical explanation of what causes depression is not the cause but the reaction to core issues? Depression seems to be such a mystery to the one experiencing it. Everyone’s biochemical makeup and life experiences are so uniquely different that addressing the core beliefs underpinning the depression may be a more effective means of pulling the person out of depression.
Below are 40 core reasons why humans that are striving to awaken would be depressed. After each reason listed is a specific SFT tap you can do to address the core issue. This exercise is a shortcut to years of traditional and past life regression therapy.
Read the 40 causes below. After each one is an SFT tap. Say the SFT tap after each sentence a total of five times. Say the sentence three times while tapping on your head, a fourth time while tapping on your chest and a fifth time while tapping on your abdomen.
Yawning, crying, a sense of relief or sudden sadness are all evidence that there is a shift happening in your energy. Also, the more you resist doing the taps, the more evidence you have that the tap is exactly what will help you feel better.
