Well-being is a skill we can practice
Most of what people care about can be considered a skill. For example, well-being is a skill; not suffering is a skill; noticing and regulating your emotions is a skill.
Start to practice the skill of mindfulness, which is learning to notice the nature of your experience without reacting. For example, say you fear public speaking, and the default position is to have anxiety and worry in advance about that experience. So you talk to yourself about these concerns and think you have no alternatives.
Mindfulness is a way just to feel your anxiety and be indifferent to it.

The power of framing
Anxiety feels very similar to excitement. You feel these tingles. But the difference is the story you tell yourself. For example, you experience these feelings as excitement on a rollercoaster, but when you have an interview or are about to walk out on stage, you may feel it's unbearable.
In these situations, just stepping back and realising the power of framing will help the physiology to dissipate.

The physiology of depression
Depression will tend to produce depressive thoughts, and the depressive thoughts will tend to feed back on the state.
People may lose their commitment to doing everything that is good to do. You may have to push yourself to exercise and socialise and do things that you may not want to do. You feel kind of stuck. But that is the story you are thinking and telling yourself.
You can reframe this continually and tell yourself a better story. You can change the code you're running.

How to change the story you tell yourself
Use gratitude. For example, when you're on your way to a job you don't like, and you're frustrated, you can think of all the negative things that could happen to you, and if you could just return to this moment, you would be thankful.
Nothing about your reality change, but reframing how you think can let light in.

The generic state of being
Eventually, we want to find ourselves in the usual position to effortlessly cooperate with creative and happy strangers.
We want open conversation and have other people point out errors in our thinking and in the conversation we have with ourselves.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
