Managing Depression With Mindfulness - by Kelly Dennis
COURSE

Managing Depression With Mindfulness

With Kelly Dennis

This 5-day course will be beneficial if you have in the past or are currently struggling with symptoms of depression or feelings of melancholy. Participants will learn to become more aware of bodily sensations, feelings, and thoughts from moment to moment, exploring different ways of relating to them. Bringing curiosity to the thinking patterns and styles and learning ways to become less attached to them. This helps increase the ability to mindfully accept and acknowledge unwanted thoughts and feelings rather than continuing the habitual autopilot like responses that tend to keep the depressive cycle going. Finally, participants will be able to choose from a variety of wise skillful responses to the unpleasant thoughts, feelings and sensations.

Change your relationship with depression using acceptance and mindfulness techniques.
