The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 1 in 10 adults in the United States suffers from some form of depression-that’s 10% of the adult population, or an estimated 24M people. The diagnosis of depression is still growing at an alarming rate with a recent Harvard study reporting 20 percent more patients diagnosed with depression each year.
Sadhguru, a world-renowned yogi and the founder of the Isha Institute of Inner-sciences, a destination for classical yoga and meditation retreats in McMinnville, Tenn., sheds light on depression.
According to Sadhguru, it is not the situations you face in your life that cause depression, but the expectations that you hold that cause you to spiral downward.
“We need to understand what depression is. Now, what is a ‘low’? What is it that happens within you? Fundamentally, you expected something to happen and it did not happen,” Sadhguru explains plainly.
