Hello and welcome to this guided meditation for depression. Depression can be a complex and challenging condition, affecting millions of people around the world. This guided meditation is designed to help you manage and overcome feelings of depression, and to provide you with some tools for self-care and mental wellness.

Before we begin, it's important to recognize that depression can have many different causes, and it's essential to seek professional help if you're experiencing symptoms of depression. This guided meditation is not a substitute for professional treatment, but rather a complementary practice to help you manage your symptoms and find greater peace and balance.

So let's begin. Find a quiet and comfortable place where you won't be disturbed for the next 10 minutes. Sit or lie down in a comfortable position, close your eyes, and take a deep breath in through your nose, and out through your mouth.

As you continue to breathe deeply and slowly, bring your attention to your body. Scan your body from head to toe, noticing any areas of tension or discomfort. Allow yourself to release any tension or discomfort with each exhale.

Now bring your attention to your thoughts. If you find yourself getting lost in thoughts, simply observe them without judgment, and let them go. Bring your focus back to your breath, and allow yourself to sink deeper into relaxation.

As you continue to breathe deeply and slowly, imagine a soft, warm light surrounding your body. This light represents your inner strength and resilience, and it's always there for you to tap into.

Now bring your attention to your heart. Imagine a warm, gentle energy filling your heart space, and allow yourself to feel a sense of compassion and love for yourself. Repeat the following affirmation to yourself: "I am worthy of love and compassion, and I choose to release any negative thoughts or emotions that no longer serve me."

Allow yourself to sit with these feelings of love and compassion for a few moments, and notice how they make you feel.

Now bring your attention to your breath once again. Take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, imagine any negative thoughts or emotions leaving your body, being carried away by the wind.

Repeat the following affirmation to yourself: "I am strong and capable, and I choose to release any negative thoughts or emotions that no longer serve me."

Allow yourself to sit with this affirmation for a few moments, and notice how it makes you feel.

Now, as we come to the end of this meditation, take a moment to reflect on any insights or feelings that arose during this practice. Know that you can return to this practice anytime you need to tap into your inner strength and resilience.

When you're ready, take a deep breath in, and slowly exhale. Wiggle your fingers and toes, and gently open your eyes.

Thank you for joining me in this guided meditation for depression. Remember to be kind to yourself, and seek professional help if you need it.
