Your primary care physician can help with your stress management treatment by recommending Mindfulness as a way to deal with depression.<br>
E N D
Mindfulness is the ability to be fully aware of where we are and what we are doing. • With Mindfulness we learn that we can recognize negative thoughts, but at the same time learn how to disengage from them. • Your primary care physician can help with your stress management treatment by recommending Mindfulness as a way to deal with depression. What is Mindfulness?
Basics of Mindfulness • Time: Devote some time each day for practice. • Observance: Be quiet and observe what is happening in the present moment. • No Judgment: Mentally note your thoughts and then just let them go. Don't judge yourself. • Present Moment: Mindfulness is about learning how to bring yourself back to the present.
What can Mindfulness do to help ease Depression? • The whole point of mindfulness is to practice being non-judgmental. • Your family physician will tell you that your feelings are not facts. • Talk to your family physician about ways to deal with stress management so that you, or someone you love, can avoid another depressive episode.
OUR KEY PHILOSOPHY “ Take the time to listen. What I try and do with every patient I see, in the first few minutes, is just let them say what’s on their mind and there’s a lot of study that show we don’t do that enough in medicine. These are small things that you can’t pick up really from just filling out a form. That’s why it’s really important to spend time, talking and listening and building that relationship. ~ Dr. Arun Villivalam, M.D. ”
