Hi Transiten,
I find that connecting with nature has been good for me to overcome depression and lower energies too. Here is an exercise I just got in my e-mail from my fiend and mentor Tracie Nichols who is a nature intuitive:
This week, Gaia asked me to dig out a message from a council of oak trees that I'd recorded last autumn and share it with you. She wanted you all to particularly note the practice they are suggesting..."So often we are called upon when strength is needed -- when wisdom is needed. Today we are here to remind you of the strength that comes from knowing what brings you joy. Knowing the strength that arises from being aligned with your passions, and knowing how they can best serve your community and loved ones. Simple words. Known ideas. Are you practicing them?
If this eludes you, be gentle with yourself. Find some oak trees, or any tree beings who are near. Even an image of tree beings will work. Now begin to breathe, and notice your feet feeling more firmly planted on the earth. Yes, stand up if it feels right! Keep breathing and allowing your awareness to reach toward the tree. Feel the tree reaching towards you. Become aware of the depth of your breathing expanding, become aware of a sense of belonging, stability, and restful awareness. Now listen to yourself. What is your deepest joy? How can that serve your community? Doing this frequently will allow you to discover your joy and remain present to this discovery through your days. We support each other, humans and trees, when we co-create moments of discovery…”
With deep love and appreciation,
Tracie
Alchemy for the Earth
Also, if you can get to the source of the depression and heal/ clear/ integrate it , that is a good thing. Are you taking any steps to heal ?
I have some ideas if you are interested.
Peace
