What is Depression?
Depression is a mental health condition that causes persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and loss of interest in daily activities. It affects how a person thinks, feels, and behaves — and can impact work, relationships, and overall health.

How to Treat Depression Naturally
Depression can be managed and often improved naturally with consistent self-care, positive habits, and emotional support. The goal is to restore balance in your mind and body through healthy daily practices.
Therapy and Counseling
Talking with a psychologist or counselor helps you understand your emotions, identify negative thinking patterns, and find healthy ways to cope with stress and sadness.
Regular Exercise
Physical activity boosts endorphins — natural “feel-good” hormones — that reduce stress, improve mood, and increase confidence. Even a 20-minute walk daily can make a big difference.
Healthy Diet and Proper Sleep
Eating nutritious meals and maintaining a regular sleep schedule helps stabilize mood and energy levels. Avoid caffeine, junk food, and late-night screen time to improve mental well-being.
Meditation and Mindfulness
Practicing yoga or meditation calms the mind, reduces anxiety, and promotes inner peace by focusing on the present moment instead of negative thoughts.
