Depression

Learn how to ease depression with the Depression AIT course on Udemy.

According to Andrew Solomon, the opposite of depression is vitality, not sadness.

Andrew Solomon is an expert on the subject of depression, who has struggled with depression himself, and knows firsthand what he’s talking about.

If Andrew is right, depression is not a mental illness. It’s a collection of symptoms that arise from a lack of vitality.

These symptoms differ from person to person. For instance, one person may lack the energy to deal with angry people, while another is too tired to do her chores, and another may be so drained that she can’t even get out of bed.

People who struggle with depression may also lack the energy to seek therapy. That’s where AIT (Archetypal Image Therapy) comes in. Just by looking at AIT images, you can strengthen your mind’s vitality, lessen symptoms of depression, and set your foot on a path of recovery.

Archetypes form the living system of reactions and dispositions that, unbeknownst, shape an individual’s life. Archetypes give the unconscious its fundamental structure. — Carl G. Jung

The suggestive power of positive archetypal images has a balancing influence on the human mind. In the case of depression, archetypal images can boost vitality, intuition, and spiritedness.
