() A depressed person doesn’t have to be dysfunctional or unable to get out of bed in the morning. There are much milder, but omnipresent symptoms… Like feelings of helplessness, pessimism, lack of self-worth, problems with concentrating, and making decisions, not getting pleasure from what used to feel amazing, etc. The list is quite extensive, which is why you need to pay attention to your inner workings.

If you spot these signs of depression, it’s time to do something about them. If you’re not keen on taking prescribed medication, then we’ve got a list of natural anti-depressant remedies to make you feel better without pharmaceuticals.

6 Natural Anti-depressant Remedies

1. Curcumin aka Turmeric

natural anti-depressant remediesTurmeric is excellent whenever you’re making Indian food, but its healing properties are beyond anything regular. Turmeric is a wonder maker for many different diseases and chronic conditions… And it doesn’t fall short when it comes to treating depression symptoms.
 
The secret of this herb is that it has a positive effect on two happiness neurotransmitters – serotonin and dopamine. With frequent use of turmeric in your everyday life, you can expect improvements to happen gradually, but noticeably.
 
As it is an entirely natural remedy, there are no side effects to consuming it. Moreover, when it comes to how healthy its results are, well, they match those of Prozac. What’s more, if you are taking medications for your depression, turmeric will also boost their effectiveness.

2. St. John’s Wart

Another tremendous go-to antidepressant remedy is St. John’s Wart. It’s probably one of the most recommended natural ways to deal with depression.
This plant, which is also known for its anti-inflammatory properties, helps norepinephrine, serotonin, and dopamine be more present in your metabolism.
Unlike medication, it takes some time for St. John’s Wart to do its magic. You will start feeling a bit better a week after you start taking it… And after four weeks, improvements will be significant.
You can use St. John’s Wart in any way it’s available to you. For instance, there are capsules, teas, and oils, so all you have to do is find what suits you best.

3. Saffron

We know that saffron doesn’t come cheap. Furthermore, and it can be particularly challenging to find the real deal because there are countless frauds out there.
 
This rare and cherished culinary spice is very much worth the effort because it’s one of the best natural antidepressant remedies there is.
 
Not only does saffron have a positive impact on the serotonin presence in your body, but it’s also terrific in curbing your hunger so that you can eat wholesome meals. Every time you reach for unhealthy snacks, they can have an impact on depression.
 
Saffron reduces stress and anxiety. It also helps with various obsessive-compulsive disorders. Just make sure you’re not using it when pregnant.

4. Omega-3 Fatty Acids

Omega-3 Fatty Acids have many metabolism-boosting qualities. But unfortunately, our bodies can’t create them on their own. This is why you should incorporate sources of omega-3 fatty acids into your diet.
 
These nutrients enable our brain to function smoothly, which is vital in keeping depression at bay.
 
When certain foods stimulate our brain, our body is in better sync with our psyche which is why omega-3 can be a game-changer.
 
You can find plenty of Omega-3 Fatty Acids in fish like salmon and mackerel. Fish oil is an excellent way to go and fish-oil supplements too.

5. Chamomile

natural anti-depressant remediesYou already know of chamomile and all its soothing properties. But what you might not know is that it can be a terrific natural anti-depressant remedy.
 
This plant is very safe to use; there are no side effects. Additionally, you can mix it with any other antidepressant treatments you’re using.
 
Chamomile’s most robust quality is that it calms stress and anxiety without straining your nervous system in any way.
 
Drinking chamomile tea is an excellent way to get this plant into your body – it will calm you down and offer you some peace and clarity we all need.
 

6. Mindfulness, Movement and Eating Well

Our last natural anti-depressant remedy isn’t a remedy per se, but it is incredibly important to mention.
Taking care of your physical body is vital to healing your depression. You should always keep this fact in mind.
Practice being present here and now instead of obsessing about what was or what will be. It’s no easy task to achieve, especially when we’ve been programmed our whole life not to do so.
Though it’s hard, get out of the house, sit in the sunshine, be around people who love you, and understand what you’re going through. If you do this, it’s going to make everything much better.
Finally, watch what you eat, steer clear of alcohol, unhealthy processed foods, and sweets as that will only diminish the effects of natural antidepressant remedies we mentioned.
When depression sneaks up on you, the vital thing to do is acknowledge it’s there, even though it might pain you to admit it. After that, choosing the right ways to deal with it will come naturally.

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?

The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.

What is our mission? Why do we post what we do?

Our mission here is to curate (share) articles and information that we feel is important for the evolution of consciousness. Most of that information is written or produced by other people and organizations, which means it does not represent our views or opinions as managing staff of Stillness in the Storm. Some of the content is written by one of our writers and is clearly marked accordingly. Just because we share a CNN story that speaks badly about the President doesn’t mean we’re promoting anti-POTUS views. We’re reporting on the fact as it was reported, and that this event is important for us to know so we can better contend with the challenges of gaining freedom and prosperity. Similarly, just because we share a pro/anti-[insert issue or topic] content, such as a pro-second amendment piece or an anti-military video doesn’t mean we endorse what is said. Again, information is shared on this site for the purpose of evolving consciousness. In our opinion, consciousness evolves through the process of accumulating knowledge of the truth and contemplating that knowledge to distill wisdom and improve life by discovering and incorporating holistic values. Thus, sharing information from many different sources, with many different perspectives is the best way to maximize evolution. What’s more, the mastery of mind and discernment doesn’t occur in a vacuum, it is much like the immune system, it needs regular exposure to new things to stay healthy and strong. If you have any questions as to our mission or methods please reach out to us at [email protected].
