Meditation for depression - silence that doesn't overwhelm
Depression is not a lack of motivation - but a regulatory disorder
Depression is not simply "sadness", "laziness" or "a merry-go-round of thoughts". It is a profound change in mood, drive, body perception and inner experience. It is often accompanied by sleep disorders, exhaustion, concentration problems, pain or inner emptiness.
The body is there - but it often feels strange, heavy, dull.
The head is awake - but trapped in itself.
The breath flows - but it is not felt.
Meditation can be an effective tool here - if it is used correctly.

Yoga for headaches - release tension, direct your breath
Headaches are one of the most common everyday complaints. They come on gradually or suddenly, throbbing, pressing, pulling - sometimes out of nowhere, often as a reaction to overload, overstimulation or muscular tension patterns.
Many patients are fixated on medication - not because they want to, but because they see no other strategy.
