Stop The Rumination!

by Cindy
(Tulsa, OK USA)

Research has found that dwelling on negative thoughts and allowing them to spiral out of control is a hallmark of depression. Here are some strategies I've used to move my mind off rumination: called a friend, started singing (especially spiritual songs or hymns), journaling, exercise, deep breathing, focusing on the present, making a gratitude list, doing restorative yoga, getting outside, watching Last Holiday with Queen Latifah!

Blessings all!
