This podcast is the narrated version of my article Why are so many people depressed?.
We asked our Uncommon Practitioners this question on our Facebook page and the response was fantastic with many wise words shared. Rather than one answer being the ‘right one’ or the only one, I see your informed replies as vital parts of a whole ‘mosaic’ of possible depression causes.
In this episode I talk about:
- Cause 1: Disconnected Communities
- Cause 2: Materialism
- Cause 3: Unrealistic Expectations
- Cause 4: Diet
