22.01.2022 This page relates to a recently released book written by Bronwyn Barter. The title is the question that Bronwyn has been asked many times in her role as a Breathwork practitioner. It seems that folks think that this is a page to deliver their own advice!! I hope that clears up the confusion XBron

20.01.2022 This book is about the impact that depression has on people in all kinds of relationships, how it can create sadness, illness, and a great deal of hardship for whole families and the wider community. Depression affects spouses, children, work colleagues, relatives and even the family pets . . . not to mention the neglect of the finances, house and garden! Depression causes an escape from reality, shuts everything out, and creates a dour and dark landscape for life. My intention is to explain how many situations can be identified and then helped. There is help at hand. There are ways to bring depression to an end. It is not a permanent state of living; it’s a warning that some things need to change. "Life doesn't get better by chance, it gets better by change!" Jim Rohn

04.01.2022 'Diagnosing someone with depression can be like placing a curse on them. The title of being depressed can be the same as naming them with a disease. The diagnosis presupposes that there is something wrong with them. Sadness is not a mental illness. Unlike having a broken leg, which can be set in a plaster, immobilized and left to heal, a depressed person is given a label for their feelings. The negative thought patterns that create depression are most often not reset in a... safe plaster, yet they are expected to heal. They are covered up with the antidepressants and left to flail around until the broken thoughts swell of their own accord and get bigger. That is akin to putting a loose bandage on a fractured limb and expecting the bone to heal straight and true to its original shape. Prescribing drugs for a person who has already presented with saddened thoughts and convincing them to swallow suppressant drugs is an obsolete solution, and in the 2010s it is still a widespread practice. I am sure that in years to come, it will be laughed at as a ridiculous methodology. Antidepressant drugs don’t heal. They don’t change anything. Instead they mask the symptoms of depression for those who are not yet prepared to go to the source of the problem.
