Coping with Brief Depression Episodes | Mindful Tools for Emotional Waves. 

In this episode, we explore how to recognize and cope with transient depression—those short, heavy emotional dips that may last 20 to 30 minutes and then lift. While brief, these episodes can be intense and unsettling.

I share my own experience with these emotional waves and talk about how tools like breath awareness, body sensations, music, and mini meditations can offer real support in the moment. You don’t have to be stuck or spiral deeper—there are simple, effective ways to ride it out.

What you'll hear in this episode:

• What brief depression episodes feel like
  

• How meditation may keep these waves from becoming long-term depression
  

• Grounding techniques: breath, body, music, and short meditative resets
  

• The value of simply allowing the emotion without resistance
  

If you've ever felt a sudden low that seemed to pass as mysteriously as it came, this episode is for you.
