In this Episode Eleanor & Christopher discuss how depression can be reframed from the classical clinical lens into a more holistic understanding that depression is a signal and a messenger. Please know you are not alone.

Action Steps:

  1. Check your foundational basics: sleep, diet (sugar, processed seed oils, food sensitivities - gluten, dairy), Water, Nature, Community

  2. Sit Down - Set a 10 Minute Timer - Repeat the Mantra "I Love You & I Am Listening"

  3. Ask for Help
