Topic: 
Why do I get so depressed over 
little things? and How to overcome 
depression?


Is Feeling depressed over little things 
can be a common experience 
for many people?

Why?


Why do I get so depressed over 
little things?



Depression is “because 
Reality doesn’t match 
what you want in your mind. 

On top of this, 
it then becomes habitual.



In order to get success
as per your expectation, 
if you work hard you will succeed.

How about reality?
Maybe a lot of problems and challenging 
situation comes. 



How about your new year's resolution?
Exercise hard and want to keep a healthy body.

How reality?
One day by one day getting lazy and lost 
my daily routine. 

And then?
Give up?


----------------------------

Depression is because 
Reality doesn’t match 
my expectation.

----------------------------

For me, before meditation,
I always blame others and situations, 
and complain about people around me, 
the world, and parents,  ….

After meditation, 
I recognized the problem was with me 
and my thoughts and feelings about 
the situation, 
and therefore only I had the power 
to change it.


In order to succeed
throw away my thoughts and feelings.
And then you will get the inner power 
to change.



Do you have some ideas?
Let's see 5items below.

1. Meditation 
Self-reflection, letting go, and repetition. 
Reflecting on all the times in life 
when I felt depressed, the thoughts, 
feelings, and places surrounding it, 
then discarding it from my mind,
-  and doing this continuously. 





2. Move(exercise)
Studies have shown changing your 
physiology can alter your mood. 
Getting up, moving(exercising), 
or even just trying to work gradually 
lessened the intensity of the depression.




3. Self-awareness 
Reality doesn’t match my mind 
Journaling helped a lot with this process 
to continue to detach from those thoughts 
and feelings.
Thank you diary and self-reflection diary 
is helping this.




4. Eating properly 
The gut/brain connection is huge, 

Brain to gut
Stress, anxiety, and other mental health conditions 
have physiological consequences, such as 
disrupting gut motility and functionality, 
which results in symptoms such as constipation 
and stomach pain.

Gut to Brain
The enteric nervous system in the gut produces 
neurotransmitters such as serotonin ad metabolites 
which impact mental health conditions such as 
stress, anxiety, and depression and may even 
contribute to personal characteristics.




5. Realizing change is gradual, 
    not instantaneous 


Take 3 steps forward, 
    and 2 steps back, it’s OK.
 
You moved forward.
And that’s change. 

Bit by bit, 1 step at a time.


-------------------------------------


How the human mind 
is created?

The Human Body Functions Like A Camera 
All the things I saw, heard, smelled, 
and felt are all taken as pictures into 
the brain like a reel of film.


How to throw it away?
Recall,
Reflect,
Throw away!


Time is medicine?
No.

The minds will disappear 
when we throw them away.



Change your thoughts, then your actions change!
Change your actions, then your habits change!
Change your habits, then your life changes!
Change your life, then your destiny changes!


If there is something you do not know, 
you can learn it 
by going to a place that knows it.

Just like that, you can come here and learn 
from meditation experts.


Let's do it together!
Let's live well!
