Stop the Volcano Erupting

Last night here in Wolverhampton I gave a talk to the community about meditation and the subject Increasing Confidence and Reducing Depression.

We looked at the analogy of a volcano. 

The volcano that erupted in Iceland has caused incredible disruption across Europe - in the same way depression causes disruption within our life.
 
Just as a volcano erupting comes from a series of causes so does depression.  Depression arises over a period of time - often unhappiness that is bubbling under.  We need to try and stop the flow of negative thoughts through changing our mind - transforming our mind from negative to positive.

Practicing meditation gives us the power to accomplish this - we can prevent the eruption from causing chaos in the space of our mind...
