Relaxation Vs Depression

Stress, depression, other peoples anger, other peoples bullying, harassment, inconsiderate anti-social behaviour (i.e. noise), failure in others eyes, failure in our own eyes, not enough time to do what we enjoy, too much time doing what we don’t enjoy!

It’s no wonder we feel the need to relax!

I feel that many people think that “relaxing” is some sort of hippy new age bull crap and only something for wimps. I feel pity for them, but there view (or ignorance) has no right to impact on our own path.

Most people use “distraction” as their way to relax. TV, books,getting blind drink. drugs

Unfortunately, that IS distraction and not relaxation. It may make you feel better at the time, or more likely, oblivious to how you feel, but that is not true relaxation.

I’m not necessarily talking about mediation (which people often confuse with being asleep), or burning incense candles and going “homm”. There is nothing wrong with that though!

But relaxation is a state of mind. It is a viewpoint or an opinion of yourself.
That probably sounds strange right now, as it is (phew ey), but we will explain that over the coming of the days.

Peace & Light!
