<p>Most people get depressed at times, and many suffer greatly from bouts of major depression. At the heart of the suffering is the experience of severed belonging—of being imprisoned in the pain of separation, unworthiness, unlovability and hopelessness. These two talks explore several meditation practices that reconnect us with our natural aliveness, openheartedness and awareness. They empower us to develop our inner resources, energize us to awaken, free us from rumination and remind us that we are not our depressive thoughts and feelings. The growing realization of the loving awareness that is our home heals the very roots of depression.  In this talk, we’ll look at:  - how depression and anxiety mirror our collective disconnection, and how mindful awareness can begin to heal both body and spirit. - how ungrieved loss turns into depression, and how opening to sorrow with compassion reconnects us to love and aliveness. - the “logjam” of depression, showing how small mindful shifts can restore flow, energy, and a sense of possibility. - how reconnecting with our heart’s deep intention awakens hope and invites a renewed capacity for presence and joy. - how meditation helps us move from ruminating thoughts to embodied presence, revealing the awareness that frees us.</p>
