We know that to change harmful mental conditions we must cultivate the opposite. Ayurvedically, consciousness is grown in the petri dish of the food, impressions and associations around us, as well as our behavior. These daily imprints dye the consciousness until we think we are that color. Being able to begin choosing the opposite of what we struggle with offers a battle plan. When low and depressed, eat vitalizing foods, sit with the exuberance in nature, be with the sun. Be with those who are sunny, and spiritual. Stay away from stimulants such as coffee, sugar, alcohol, anti-depressants, they only mask. Our true nature is inherently divine, our moods superimpose weird dye colors. The job is to return to our original state, who we already are.
