Practice self-compassion with 100 mindfulness meditations for depression

The unhelpful patterns that fuel depression can become clearer, less intimidating, and easier to manage as we develop a mindfulness practice. Mindfulness Meditations for Depression is filled with gentle, step-by-step meditations to help bolster this awareness and break depression's hold on your life.

Explore 100 accessible practices, structured around the seven principles of mindfulness: beginner's mind, non-judgment, acceptance, patience, trust, non-striving, and letting go. You'll learn how to use mindfulness techniques to better understand your mood, anxiety level, and overall well-being as you work through the challenges that life presents. While meditation is not a quick-fix for depression, the tools here can contribute to lasting relief.

Mindfulness Meditations for Depression includes:

  • Mindfulness for depression—Learn more about meditation and mindfulness, as well as the patterns of depression, including avoidance and rumination.
  • Continuing self-care—Develop awareness around your emotions, thoughts, sensations, and behaviors so you can catch early warning signs of depression and employ mindful self-care tactics.
  • Evidence-based methods—Discover meditations rooted in mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, which focuses on the development of mindfulness to cope with depressive patterns of thinking and prevent future relapse.
  • Manage depression symptoms and find peace with Mindfulness Meditations for Depression.
