The three things under your control to help you get out of the pit of despair… and stay out.

​When was the last time fell into a dark and cold hole where you ended up feeling all alone and unable to see a way out?

​Being informed about depression, how it works, what causes it, and how it feels in the body; helps us to prevent getting depressed or to reduce the time we are depressed. ​The more informed we are, the easier it is to get out of it.

We all know stress is undesirable because it doesn’t feel good in the body. But, most of us don’t know what happens in the body when we are stressed out, much less, what those changes cause to our health.​

Being aware of what stress does to your body might help you be aware of the situations that cause you to be stressed out.

​The job of your survival instinct is to keep you out of danger and alive. But what happens when the information to keep you alive is confused?

​Learn about your survival instinct and how it makes you feel stuck when you want to improve your life.

It’s not that easy to live a positive and happy life when you’re constantly reading, hearing, and watching stories of how doomed humanity is. Don’t let that stress and fear take over your life. Instead, focus on the positivity around you by following a simple plan.

​Once you understand, high level, how the human brain works you’ll understand why there are so many negative conversations around us. This will make it easier for you to stay in your center in spite of everything that’s happening in your surroundings.

​You may be all grown up but inside you there’s a child still hurting. As long as those emotional hurts are not healed, that child will be there hurting and acting up until the day you die. 

​Emotional hurts are those strong negative feeling emotions you feel when you remember past experiences. Reach out to heal those emotional wounds so you begin to live a life of hope, contentment and enthusiasm. 
​

​Dumping your old emotional hurts onto the new people that come into your life experiences is a sign that you carry your old emotional baggage with you.

​You might feel that emotional baggage is protecting you from getting hurt again, but it’s only hurting your present and the new relationships that come in to your life.

​Life is supposed to be good. If you’re perceiving life’s problems bigger than you can manage, it’s because you allowed the monsters in your head to grow way out of control. Don’t worry; if you allowed them to grow, you also have the power to dissolve them.

​Doesn’t matter the reason that gets a person to consider suicide, it all comes down to be from a negative perception of life. But as long as they have life, they have all the power in the universe to change that perception.
