10-Minute Meditation For Depression

Thank you, long term depression survivor here, noticed that I was struggling with low mood again and found this. It helped. I can see why others have commented that they're unable to focus on this whilst deeply depressed though. The silent parts caused my thoughts to race back to the negative. Do you have any depression themed meditations that are 100% guided?

It says there’s connections for hotlines to call but I don’t see any connections!

this ten minutes made me realize that i'm being unfair to myself too much. i always hate me and say "why cant i be normal like everyone else?" but when i say this, i am breaking that little child's heart in me and now i wanna hug her and say that im sorry. she was always so powerful and deserved love. she get through everything, im to cruel one for hating her. now its time to hug myself i guess

A hug to everybody 🫂😣

thank you john 😭🙏

Omfg. Thank you for this. ❤

I find your voice very comforting, John. Thank you for making this. Sometimes I can't concentrate on the context of the video because I'm so engulfed in my dark cloud but something about your voice helps me come back to a place of self compassion and some clarity. Thank you for all that you do. I hope you know that you have helped me a lot and I keep coming back to this video. Sending you good vibes and best wishes. I hope anyone reading this knows that you are not alone, and keep practicing mindfulness.

Can we get one for grief?

I kinda cried when he spoke about compassion. It felt nice to be kind to myself for a brief moment.

I just laughed hysterically through this something is truly wrong with me

hi i am just putting my thoughts here because i have no one to talk to. i feel like i am dying every day . i wake up , dont drink water or any routine , i use my phone 20 hours a day , cant sleep , cant even breathe . i am on my bed 24 hours , when someone asks me to get up , i feel like he's torturing me . i have no friends, and my father passed when i was 11 .
i dont trust my mom and my brother because they don't understand. i am completely facing depression because i can't even stop crying . i want to just end things here . i just dont wanna live ..

I lost my mother to cancer just 1 month ago, and this meditation helped me a little. So thank you 🙏

Thank you for your help

Does anyone else get angry because it's the only emotion that makes sense?

This helped me through a tricky morning. Thank you 😌

this helped

What if your parent are too strict they don't let you to talk with others they keep imposing their things on you

Gracias por esto❤️❤️

Thank you for this meditation. I was feeling really down about my life today and this really helped me feel a little better.

My biggest problem is that I'm never alone. Never alone. And all I want is to be alone for a couple of hours everyday. I want to be free of the energies, needs, and wants of other people. This was no help.

I’m at the point of giving up. I feel like there is no hope left

Im here now trying to help myself if this feeling will go 🙏

As soon as the breathing started I stared to pour ma tears n 😭 sob like I haven't in a while

had to breathe thought my mouth bc i was crying midway through. a good relief tho. and i giggled when you say "give yourself a big hug" since i was literally hugging myself at that point

It's hard but it helps

How does this work for anyone?

Music 🎵can help but I have tried medicine then choose to stop taking it for a while. 😦

I feel like life doesn’t want me here

I found this at the right time. It’s honestly so hard to focus on anything when my depressive episodes kick in. But this helped, I actually cried during this, thank you so much

why is the music so sinister lol well im not depressed anymore but instead im kinda scared now 😂

Thank you, I've been having a really hard time, my depression and derealization are really bad and this helped me calm a little bit. I'm so tired and exhausted I've lost a sight of myself and my reasons to keep going. I just want to go back to myself

I've been listening to this channel's different kind of meditations. Right now,I could tell that they really take into consideration every meditation they will make. In other meditation videos they have many words in the middle of the meditation to guide us,but in this video about depression they just guide us ,not much words because I think they knew that every single one of us have a lot of words and situation in our heads and they walk us to be patient with us by saying less words.

You said put our had on our belly and all I could think about what the fat I felt under my hand.

this helped me down from a pretty intense depression episode. my body feels calm now, thank you

Thank you for this meditation, i struggled with depression for a long time, I recently had a relapse in depression since i stopped my antidepressants 2 and a half months ago. i restarted it and it's been about 3 weeks now. I do feel more concentration but still feel very depressed. This really helped. Depression feels so isolating, like i'm the only one in the world that feels like this. desperate, painful to be awake and know that you can't snap your fingers and it's gone. I am however hopeful that this will get better it did before and i lived thru it.

Thank you so much for this video ❤. This helped me battle crippling anxiety and depression at a time when I needed it most.

For those in the comments, I'm rooting for you guys. We can get through this together 🙂.

Why the heck is the music so creepy?!! It’s hard to relax 😭

Thank you so much mate,after finishing feels like that weight of depression and stressful thoughts have gone off me 😀 THANK YOU

Thank you ❤

I really enjoy the music. What's it called?

I am alone that's why I am here dealing with it on my own, forced to heal, forced to create the illusion of comfort within the chaos and emptiness

Thank you John, your voice is soothing and kind. Wishing you could add about 10 -15 more minutes of music at the end of your guided meditations to allow them to sink in and finish gently.❤

This was really good. It helped so much. Thank you.

“Honor what your body wants”
Weed?

Can I… exhale? At the end? Pls?

I’ve been going through some depression lately. And I’ve found that doing these meditations help soooo much! Every time the meditations finished, and I see the green screen at the end, I feel as happy as ever. Like I have a fore's field of happiness around me. Thank you for making this meditation. It helped me and prevented me from harming or harming other people from my sadness!

Lovely meditation. Calm relaxing and soothing voice, gorgeous x

i thought i was doing fine…at least much better than before, trying to work on myself and forgive myself, but today was just a really emotional day, i cried for hours even though i tried to calm down my tears just couldn’t stop…
During this meditation i tried to hold back my tears and clear my mind but even without realising i was already crying again…and when i heard the words “you are not alone” i felt comforted. Its been a while since i heard those words.
Thank you for this video 🫶
