One of the most important things I ever learned in my recovery from depression was mindfulness.💙

Mindfulness is the ability to recognize your thoughts, listen to them, work out where they're coming from, what self-belief you have that triggers the thought.💙

The thought then triggers a feeling and that can be a feeling of constriction and potentially the road to depression or expansive if it's a positive thought and you feel uplifted.💙

So, mindfulness, the ability to recognize the thoughts and also the feelings is really, really important and is something that's been critical on my path of depression recovery.💙
